Hey evan,

 

How long do you plan to be on the market?  I think I've got a couple of
quick-rich schemes that might get you some return on your investment before
your long-lived life decides to give up the ghost.

Well, I know I'll be changing my practices. Now that the rates have gone up,
I'm going to try and validate as many books as possible because I'm in the
market for a house, and I'm going to try to use my Bookshare credits as
collateral for the mortgage. <grin>

I think I'll do pretty much the same job I've always done, because I think
all of us are doing our best. I don't know that we should change our
criteria for accepting or rejecting a book. We validators work hard to make
the best product we can. Because we've changed our rate of pay, I don't
quite understand what that has to do with the scanners. Maybe I'm missing
something.

I don't get it; why do you think validators should get tougher because they
are now being paid more?  Don't mean to be dense, but don't get it.

Hi listers,

Since bookshare has seen fit to raise credit for validators, we should get
tough.

I was just up on the step one page, and the first two books I looked at,
were shown to be fair with many errors. 

My suggestion is this. If you know a book is fair with many errors, why are
you submitting it at all? If I get a book like that, chances are, I'm likely
to reject it. If you can't check your scans, clean them up and make them
good, then don't do it. Sure, I have submitted books that weren't good, and
I had to learn a lot of things, and I understand that. When you first start
out you mess up. I understand that, but come on, some of these books weren't
submitted by new folks just learning. We all have to do the best scans we
can, it is up to us, and no one else.
