That 'lie detector' survey was quite good fun! I had to lie and explain how I was throwing a birthday party for my cat next week!

I wanna do that one, not that I am any good at lying but I could lie about that.

Happy birthday, Tigger.

What does it do? All I can see is money-off vouchers, mikep. What am I missing?

Qmee? I do the surveys mostly, they are much more frequent but lower paying then Prolific, with risk of being screened. You also have chances of search wins in google like with swagbucks. Theres a thread for qmee, though it isnt as well used as this one.

Filth alert!

I've had a good run the last couple of days. £3.26 yesterday and £5.92 today. I've been positively inundated! 11 studies in 48 hours. Perhaps I am still green enough after all!

Good for you, Brookside; that was us last year. I actually managed three whole studies yesterday, a positive cornucopia compared with the last several weeks.

Are what things? The smart items? They are real, but I'm not sure it has to do with not thinking for themselves. Creating devices like this are extremely clever and would've needed a great deal of thought. Its about increasing efficiency and making life easier - the same way as a remote control did before it for the last generation or a washing machine.
Also if you think about it, the generation that would most benefit would be those who lack mobility - who are commonly the older generations.

I think the current generation of 30-somethings think deeper then any generation before it, to be honest. Too much so at times.
