There are tons of survey companies out there. Most are not worth your time unless you do not value your time. Many ask questions that can open you up for junk mail and solicitation phone calls. Many are 'deceiving' in that they indicate you will 'win' $1-3 for your survey, while what you are 'winning' are points that only once you have accumulated enough (and it usually is a lot) will you get a gift card. In the MyPoints.com mentioned above, 3500 points represents 700 emails 'read'. If they sent you 25 emails per day to 'do', you could get a gift card in a month. They know that most folks will give up when they have done this stuff for a week or so and gotten nowhere on accumulating points. Thus they have had your services with no obligation to pay out anything on what you have 'earned'.
