Thanks for the link to my MTurk anti-spam idea! I'm very interested in People Powered APIs like MTurk. I was digging inside Alexa and discovered that they also use a people-powered API for their screen shots. Amazon practices what they preach, I guess. The URL with my name goes to the article.

Thanks for linking to my article Jeff. I am fascinated with everything that can be accomplished with Mechanical Turk and I am glad to see that the tasks are growing in number and getting more interesting.
