Searching for HITS - YouTube - by littlemissmono, Jun 2014 (includes demonstrations of several userscripts for the normal mturk.com search interface) (She also posted some other videos that are about HIT Scraper, but that userscript has changed so much since then in regard to much of what the videos focus on that they aren't very helpful anymore, and have static issues anyway, so just go watch Tjololo's/Tigerpants's/Jackie's videos for HIT Scraper coverage.)
