It ultimately depends on which project you get on. Some things I've done: deciding which category an ad belongs in, parsing the post for overall themes a post can be tagged with, judging the likely intent of a search query based on the search location and time, stuff like that. Ultimately, you're helping to train Zuck's AI in exchange for a marginal living. Still beats working retail though.
It's an hourly rate. Still determined by the amount of tasks available, but the right project can get you a mostly steady 20 hrs a week. You can do other projects also, up to 40 hrs a week, if you can stand it, lol.
once you get in the swing of what they're asking of you, and most importantly, figuring out how to minimize the amount of time you spend actually doing tasks, you can definitely do other things while you're working, (albeit in short 1 -2 minute bursts.) I would regularly watch videos, browse the web (in a different browser), study for IT certs, play turn-based video games, and occasionally, before i sobered up, get shithoused drunk and sing(actually, more like yelling as i got deeper into the case) along to my favorite records, all while on-the-clock.
absolutely no on the benefits though. you're a "self-employed" 1099 contract worker, even though you have a set amount of hours required each week, supervisors to theoretically report to, etc. really fucking shitty, but you'll never make enough money doing this to get penalized for tax underpayment or anything so i guess that's a plus?
If this is the route you take, i'd definitely recommend using some of the aforementioned on-the-clock time to study and get some other, hopefully better paying, work lined up, because in the end, it's still a shit job with shit pay, just one you can do at home in your underpants while stoned off your gourd if you so desire.
