Why do I subscribe to online surveys? Is it the $2.50 I might get?

No.

Do I feel that people care about my opinion on Budweiser?

No.

It’s those rare moments when I get an official survey that asks the following:

Please write a few sentences about why you are “Very Likely” to watch the new season of Doctor Who.

Oh, yeah….

My response:
I have been watching Doctor Who since 1978. I introduced my wife to the new series when it debuted. She is completely hooked. I have introduced several friends to the series. They are hooked. My toddler (born after the new series debuted) dances when the theme comes on. It’s very likely I’ll host a Series 4 debut gathering for “Partners in Crime”

I may skew your survey. To me Doctor Who is the number 1 show I seek out. Period.

I am curious…

I saw a survey like this a while ago…

I’m doing some independent research. I’ve listed a whole bunch of net services. I’m curious which ones you use. Doesn’t matter if it’s regularly or irregularly. However, you must still use it on occasion. If you played with it and abandoned it, you can leave it blank.

I guess I should state that this is for my own research. I will not sell, release, etc… anyone’s individual data. Also, I’m only asking if you use a service. You do not (and should not) tell me your IDs on these services. That’s not the point of the research.

In the text boxes, feel free to list any net-style services you feel may be missing. In commentary feel free to comment on the list or elabourate why certain things may be missing or be over represented here.

Please pass this posting onto friends. The more people I get to respond to this, the better for the information I’m looking for. I’m hoping to get a sampling of at least 200 responses. Please promote 🙂

Thanks!
