The latest Amazon survey of their affiliates (Amazon Associates Survey ) is generating discussion in the Associates discussion forum. Someone who hadn't been contacted about the survey, but heard that a $5 gift certficate was being given, remarked that he'd be willing eat worms just to get a $5 gift certificate.
I sent him the following message:
Mike,
Eat worms? Reminds me of the friend in high school who ran a spider through a pencil sharpener, then ate the spider, just to make $1. The best part was when the normally docile teacher then refused to let him go get a drink to wash the taste out of his mouth.
Anyhow, no need to eat worms... The survey is pretty dain-branaged, but can be completed without error. Someone put the secret about how you too can take the survey, and the kinds of questions you'll be asked, here: Amazon Associates Survey
BTW, according to the post, they take 4 weeks to deliver the $5 gift certificate via email, thus increasing the chances that they can either forget to send it, or you'll not notice it in your spam bucket, or whatever....
Maybe eating worms would be easier. Everyone else: Shall we start a collection to buy Michael a can of worms, a webcam so we can watch, and a gift certificate? www.EatWormsGetFreeBooks?Create.com? Maybe tape worms? www.LoseWeightGetFreeBooks?Create.com?
Or maybe www.EatWormsForAmazonGifts?Create.com? Whoops, that would violate the TOS... Darn...
Enjoy,

P.S. Another survey by the same company handling the amazon survey (June 2004 Surveys has details) is a smoking survey with an almost endless parade of cigarrette pack warnings, asking for your opinions. Some are kind of gross, some are hilarious. Reminiscient of the Despair, Inc. posters. When you try the survey, you have to say you are a smoker, or they'll say the survey is full... Unfortunately all the choices are things like "this shocked me, this makes me think about how my smoking harms others, this would make me hide my cigarrettes from others", but none of the choices was "I laughed my arse off at this one". If they had all these labels on one brand of cigarettes, non-smokers might buy them just to try to collect them all!
