I was wondering, has anyone tried or know of anyone who has tried the online surveys, or jobs from home over the internet? I have heard different things about them, but only rumor. I was thinking of getting a part time job and wondered about these? Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks

Fox had a thing a long time ago that was www.liveops.com or something pretty close to that, I checked into that one, you have to have an additional phone line for just that, but you would take orders over the phone for things, did not sound really hard.
I have signed up for the surveys online...mostly they don't pay enough to make it worth the time to click the link, now they wont stop sending me surveys.
I have also done mystery shopping. This I enjoyed, but most of the Anderson shops only pay $5 or or a shop. You might get $1-$5 in free merchandise for doing the shop as well, but when you factor in all the prep, time in the store, note taking and paperwork, then you have to wait 30-60 days to get paid... Now, if I spent time in Indy mystery shopping would be a totally different story. I could almost make a full time job of it, but I am not interested in Indy so much.
PresidentJust a parent who happens to be a member of ACSC Board of Trustees. At all times I speak only for myself as an individual. I cannot, nor will I attempt to, speak for any other member of the board or administration. No member of the ACSC Board of Trustees has any authority as an individual, the authority rests in the Board as a whole only. Sometimes I forget myself and speak as a parent only, a parent who loves and protects and is very bias toward my children.Amazon Mechanical Turk is something to check out.
If you have skills (writing, design, photos, etc.) you can use a lot of different websites for freelancing opportunities.
Maybe I should write up a column on this topic when I have the time? I've been doing it over three years now. Close to the bottom some months, but looking better all the time. AFP alone is nearing 40,000 visitors a month - compared to 10,000/month before AFP print hit the streets...
Give me some time and I'll be glad to share some of my knowledge. Anyone else interested?
yes

kpaul, I'd love to see a column on this subject. There are so many scams out there when it comes to online job opportunities. Your input would be great.
Thanks. It's still on my todo list. :)
