Recent Improvements

I wanted to give everyone an update on the work we're doing to improve the CloudCrowd work experience. We have been building a bunch of pieces of unglamorous, but necessary, infrastructure. We completed the part of the Payment System that chases down all the little payments that fail or are denied. That's why your "Awaiting Payment" field now shows the right value (that was a pretty embarrassing bug).

We also built the Notification system we needed to provide better information to workers. For example, we have a concept of Probation, which occurs when a Worker's Credibility drops to a certain point, but before they would be Suspended. That requires some automated emailing, which is now in place. We made good headway on getting our Blog up, which will make it easier for Workers to get up to speed on what's going on. We made our Referral code smarter so your referral links and invitations will work consistently.

We redesigned the questions for the Projects some of you have worked on, to provide ways for inappropriate input data to be flagged. Finally, we fleshed out our Credibility model, adding some useful extensions that should help weed out fraudulent work.
 
We expect to add new work and a new project this week.
