Google Image Labeler

7 09 2006

Would you like to work for Google?….. when you can now, unfortunately they won’t pay you much, well actually the wont pay you at all.

Google are after your help to try and improve the quality of Google Image Search results.

How does it work?

You’ll be randomly paired with a partner who’s online and using the feature. Over a 90-second period, you and your partner will be shown the same set of images and asked to provide as many labels as possible to describe each image you see. When your label matches your partner’s label, you’ll earn some points and move on to the next image until time runs out. After time expires, you can explore the images you’ve seen and the websites where those images were found. And we’ll show you the points you’ve earned throughout the session.For example, this image can be described by the labels: bird, sky, soaring, or frigate bird.

Why not give it a go, I have tried about 4 times now and have been unable to match any labels :(

Ha Ha! You need to be an English teaching bod, my friend. 1st attempt, whilst multitasking I might add, =300 points.
Don’t forget the American spellings - they add to the likelihood of matching.
