What it’s like to be a Facebook moderator:

They capped us on spending about one minute per post to decide whether it was spam and whether to remove the content … we would review an average of about 8,000 posts per day, so roughly about 1,000 posts per hour.

@ronguest it sounds terrible—and that’s even before considering the nature of the job, to find and remove offensive (disturbing, even) content. I wouldn’t last long.
