Thanks. Good point about more business-oriented examples. The time frame varies since it depends on the people answering the question, but it's usually within a couple hours - good idea to note that on the site.

Unfortunately, can't choose demography but we try to break out the responses in a bunch of different ways so you can visually filter which demographic you're interested in.



Justin, I've been mucking around for awhile in MTurk trying to use Qualifications to create an survey that would target a specific demographic. Have you cracked this nut? Is this something you're considering adding to extend the product? Or is it simply not within the scope of MTurk's capabilities?


We looked at using Qualifications a bit, but quickly decided that it wasn't worth our time to deal with them, at least for PickFu in its current state.


I quite like that it's ultra-simple right now. 1 price, few options. Not something you need to think about too much. Just do it.

I'm not saying that choosing your own demographics, number of participants, more complex surveys might not be useful sometimes. But I love that I can get my head around this in 10 seconds.
