Only A Few Days Left To Do The Survey!
Cyan Ta'eedWith over 3,000 responses, The 2007 Global Freelancer Survey is coming to a close. If you have not yet taken the survey, you have until Sunday to do it!
In case you’ve forgotten, by taking part in the Global Freelancer Survey you will be rewarded in three ways:
1. Detailed Statistics. After the survey is complete we will be posting an abridged version of some results on FreelanceSwitch.com, however respondents who complete the survey will be emailed a COMPLETE set of information and data from the survey. I.e. you’ll get exclusive data that non-respondents don’t get!
2. Random Prize Draw. We have prizes. That’s right, fabulous prizes! We’ve put together the ultimate freelancer kit from Amazon for one lucky winner who will be drawn at random from the pool of respondents. The prize pack includes:

- A Balance Ball Chair from Gaiam. Balance ball chairs give you stability while encouraging proper posture. Plus they’re bouncy so you can burn calories while you work!
- A Microsoft Natural Ergo Keyboard 4000. This keyboard will help you fend off the evil RSI.
- Studio Monitor/dj Headphone. This headphone is a gem for anyone who needs to block out distractions, as it delivers superior sound while blocking outside noise. If you have kids, noisy neighbors, or an overexcited schnauzer in the house, you will love it.
- Caffeine for the Creative Mind: 250 Exercises to Wake Up Your Brain. We all need a little creative wake up call once in a while, and this book is just the ticket.
- Western Digital 60 GB USB External Hard Drive. It’s sleek, black and sexy, and it also holds all your bits and pieces. Every freelancer needs some heavy duty back-up, and this baby will do the business.
- And finally, what I want for my birthday, a Nintendo Wii!!! These will provide not only a great break after a hard day’s freelancing, but will also get you off your butt after sitting on your balance ball chair all day long.
3. Satisfaction. By completing the survey, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing you’re helping compile information to help freelancers everywhere, it only takes 10 minutes of your time and the sum of our collective knowledge will be huge!
The survey will close on Monday, so if you haven’t taken it yet, take it now!

Is the book in all available bookstores? Or is there some place I can order it at?
I wanna buy it regardless if I win it or not :D.

Click on the title of the book. It will take you to Amazon.com, and you can order it there. (The same goes for each of the items listed.)

Can’t wait until I see the results. I really have no clue what to expect.
If only I could win JUST that keyboard. My keyboard’s backspace key is smaller than the other keys, and there’s no space between it and the Print Screen key. Insane.
And that book would help. I find myself going for weeks and weeks of no creativity, then one night, like yesterday, I stay up all night and build something really cute real quick…(And I’m not a night person, I’m a early riser
)
I could get some creative juices flowing haha
