I know how tough and crucial it is to get participants to a survey, so that would be great if you guys could take this and spread it a little bit more...

Researchers at ThePrivacyPlace.Org are conducting an online survey about privacy policies and user values. The survey is supported by an NSF ITR grant (National Science Foundation Information Technology Research) and was first offered in 2002. We are offering the survey again in 2008 to reveal how user values have changed over the intervening years. The survey results will help organizations ensure their website privacy practices are aligned with current consumer values.

We need to attract several thousand respondents, and would be most appreciative if you would consider helping us get the word out about the survey, which takes about 5 to 10 minutes to complete. The results will be made available via our project website (http://www.theprivacyplace.org/).

Prizes include $100 Amazon.com gift certificates sponsored by Intel Co. and gifts from IBM and Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina

On behalf of the research staff at ThePrivacyPlace.Org, thank you!
