HCD Surveys conducted a study through MediaCurves about Texting While Driving. The participants were shown a PSA from the U.K and where asked to rate the video on effectiveness.
The study showed that 85% of Americans say that the PSA from the U.K. should be aired in the U.S.. They also found that 80% of the participants stated that they would be less likely to type while driving.
I wasn't invited for this study but have watched the video through the MediaCurves wesbite and I have to say it is pretty intense. If you haven't already watch it you should.

Two more payments from BuzzBack, one is for $2 and the other is for $20. The $20 payment was for doing a product test for them, the $2 one was just for a simple survey. Have you received any payments from BuzzBack lately? What are your thoughts about BuzzBack?

ClickIQ announced that PayPal will soon be their new payment processor, it will replace checks starting August 20th of this year. You will also have the option to send money via ACH which will electronically deposit your earnings into your bank account.
I'm really hoping that ClickIQ will be sending these panel payments free of fees. I say that because of the recent news of TestSpin transferring to using PayPal as well, but their members will be charged a 2.5% fee. Read more about it here.
Below is the email I received from them a few days ago:
Dear e/visors,
We are happy to inform you that PayPal is now available as an IQPoints cash out option.
We will no longer be issuing checks as a form of payment beginning August 20, 2009. You may cash out your IQPoints and have your money sent to your PayPal account or by ACH.
PayPal and ACH will help us expedite your payments quicker!!
Please note: If you do use PayPal as your cash out option, please ensure you type in the email for your PayPal account. If the email address you enter is not the correct PayPal email address, you will have to wait 30 days for your IQPoints to appear in your ClickIQ account and you will have to cash out a second time.
Sincerely,
Chris Simmons

TestSpin finally has PayPal as a payment option. When I logged into my member account at TestSpin today I was excited to find that they are now offering payment via PayPal as well as Amazon.com. I followed the steps to cashing out and noticed that when I wanted to cash out $20 I would only receive $16.40. Least to say I am kinda disappointed that the panelists are charged a 2.5% fee. You would think that since TestSpin is a fairly big survey panel they could do mass payments instead of having their members take a hit with fees. I'm not sure if I want to cash out through Amazon.com or not, I'd like to get the money I earned ... all of it.
What do you think about this? Are you more inclined to cash out through PayPal or Amazon? What do you think about the 2.5% fee that you are charged?

20/20 Research is conducting an online bulletin board discussion about Child Care and will paying qualifying participants $225 via online gift card. I just received this email today, so hurry up and complete the survey since studies like these usually fill up fast. When I took the short survey it did ask if there were any children one and under living in the household, so they may be looking for households that have children in that range. If that is the case I probably won't qualify for this study. Good luck!

A bulletin board is a new, cutting-edge way to conduct market research.

The online discussion takes place: August 14-September 8, and will require going online 1-2 times per week for 3 weeks, at your convenience, to answer questions posted by a moderator.
For your time and participation you will be given a $225 online gift card. As always, any information that you provide will remain strictly confidential. To see if you qualify, please click HERE to answer a few brief questions.
