I'm a 46 year-old, former office manager with a college education who used to spend way too much time reading gossip blogs on the Internet. When I discovered that I could earn money while propped up in bed, watching TV and eating bon-bons, I was thrilled. Sure, the pay is low, but I love seeing my Amazon account grow a little each day, until I have enough to treat myself to a new book or CD. I am a member of an MTurkers forum, and you might be surprised by how seriously we take the responsibility of these funny little tasks. Some of us pride ourselves on being super-sleuths, tracking down requested information all over the web for a few nickels and the satisfaction of solving a puzzle. Greetings from an MTurk worker!

Judging from message boards I've read about it, a lot of the users are college students killing time or they are actually doing MTurk work while at their regular jobs -- I'm sure lots of employers would love to know about that LOL Bill, it looks to me like a lot of MTurk users are from the US since as far as I know, you can only get paid by MTurk if you have a US bank account or can use the Amazon gift certs.

There are easier ways to earn money than doing MT tasks for 5 cents a time and I would be interested to see some stats on MT worker demographics.
