Google Needs Your Help
Have you ever noticed how you sometimes get the strangest hits at Google Images? In an effort to eliminate this problem, Google has requested the assistance of their users. In order to make it a little more interesting they have created a game called the Google Image Labeler. You and another user are "partnered" and shown a picture. Then both users attempt to come up with a label for the picture. When you agree on a label, you get another picture. The trick is you only have one minute and 30 seconds per turn. For every picture you successfully label along with your partner you get 100 points. If you're real good you may make it to the top of the labelers list.
