Too much info required on some of these for $0.75, imo

Depends if he just wants the text of the title of the press release copied, or you have to enter the actual link for the release and copy the entire thing?
Copy and paste the ACTUAL TEXT of ALL Press Releases that are available

He wants the whole thing from the sound of it.

I'm just copying the actual text like this: October 6, 2011: littleBits Closes First Round of Financing, Enters MoMA’s Collection

The box for entering text isn't ideal if he's wanting the entire press releases entered....

"find all press releases published, and copy them."

It's not ideal, but going by his instructions he wants the whole thing. I emailed him but got nothing back yet. Until then I'm going to :bode:
Even if he just wants the title ... unless you cherry pick ... a few had up to 30 PRs. No way!

I just did the same thing. Not holding my breath for a response though.

That's why I stopped doing it. The time wasn't worth it for the pay. Not to mention there were repeat PRs in some of mine, so add in having to actually keep track of what you've seen among 30+. I ended up returning most of mine.
