LightSpeed Consumer Panel – Survey Site Review (June 2010)

June 30, 2010

Name: LightSpeed Consumer Panel

Link: http://us.lightspeedpanel.com/US/public/index.us? -American Site Link-

Link: http://ca.lightspeedpanel.com/CA/public/index.ca -Canadian Site Link-

Who is eligible to participate: US and Canadian residents

Type of award or payment: Sweepstakes / Points (Cash or Prizes) / Paypal Money

Points or Cash normally earned per survey: 0 – 800 points

Sign-up time: Really short

How many surveys to expect per week: 1 – 8

How long does it take to collect reward: I have been with them for 8 years and have earned: $550.00 half in USD and half in CAD

Do they spam you: No

Number of Survey received over 8 year since joining: Lost count

Overall rating: 2.5 out of 5 – This survey company has kept on raising the number of LightSpeed points you need to cash in for their rewards. Even thou I have 3 separate positive facts of intrest.

1. The first being LightSpeed has raised its number of surveys invites quite a bit @ least via the Canadian branch of the site.

2. The second thing I want to give  LightSpeed Survey Panel major credit for. Is for the fact that I got my PayPal payout in less then 48 hours and it was for the max $40 dollar CAD payout. “Colour me impressed”

3. The second being LightSpeed has split into at least 2 different sites one being Canadian and one being American. Which has increased the number of surveys in each section or so I have been told. As well you may notice if you are like me and are Canadian you will have to setup a different account info as well as a new link to get to your account info. -This even thou at first confused me makes a whole lot more sense now that I understand the reason behind it-

Harris Poll Online – Survey Site Review (June 2010)

June 28, 2010

Name: Harris Poll Online

Link: http://www.harrispollonline.com/

Who is eligible:  Anybody

Type of Award or payment: Points / Instant Prize / Sweepstakes /

Points or Cash normally earned per survey: 1  – 500

Sign-up time: Very Short

How many surveys to expect per week: 0 (I have received more)

How Long To Collect Reward: You’ll be long dead before you get the prize you really want, unless you are really really lucky.

Do They Spam You: No

Number of Survey received over 8 year since joining: 375

Overall rating: 1.5 out of 5 – Harris Poll Online still has some really cool prizes. But just the lack of surveys alone is bothersome. Mixed with the completely unfair point value per survey. On the a more positive note,  pretty much all the surveys you will receive you will be able to complete. But that is not saying much.

WebMail Notifier (2.4.3) – Mozilla FireFox Add-on Review

June 26, 2010

WebMail Notifier (2.4.3)

A. Ease of use: 4.5/5 – Very easy to setup

B. Security: 0/5 (Very Un-secure) – It gives you a by-pass of all password and user name. Not recommended for shared computers or for high security e-mail accounts.

C. Usefulness: 3/5 – If you are lazy like me or have a really bad memory go for it. Just remember you are at risk of your account being hijacked by all means.

D. FireFox Slowdown: None

E. Computer Slow Down: None

F. Type of user I would recommend to use this add-on: I would only recommend this add-on for people who are unable to use e-mail without assistance. If you are good with the Internet and MSN, Gmail and have a good memory avoid this potential security risk.
