Usurv has been using the same model in the UK since January, working with publishers and sharing revenue with them each time a question is answered on their sites.

The market research world is changing and micro surveys are a new way clients can get feedback quickly, easily and importantly extremely cost effectively.

Our publishers are keen on it as it enables them to earn incremental revenue to support their quality content.

I question how reliable these ad/surveys are going to be if users perceive them as an annoyance. I’m skeptical enough of the kind of surveys people take voluntarily.

What Google should do, is get into the same space as flattr (or just buy flattr). Sites serve up ads as a means of getting revenue, why not make the ad a flattr button as well? Or possibly integrated into ad blockers in Chrome, so that if you don’t see an ad, you see a flattr button instead.

Flattr allows you to support random sites without expending the cognitive energy of deciding how much they deserve or whether you can afford it. It’s a brilliant concept, really, the problem is so few sites support it (but it’s mostly a problem for the sites themselves). Google could solve that problem by integrating it into their ad services – after all, getting paid is why sites host ad banners in the first place, so they shouldn’t mind.

Ad funded payment solutions have been around for years and are a proven solution on multiple platforms (web, mobile). They were proliferous on Facebook up to 2011 when Facebook jumped into bed with only one partner. Your article requires more research.

I think news sites would love such a system. If you get a survey a week for free access to quality journalism, why would you be irritated?

About the colour there is a much easier way to see what the users like since you can add-on skins to browser.
About the younger audience they are less troubled by giving up their privacy since it should change the fastest.
