MobileXpression M:Panel Mobile Survey

Here's an interesting one. Got a Windows Mobile or a Symbian OS Smartphone, and fancy making a few quid? This could be worth a look.

Survey firm MobileXpression are prepared to pay you for some basic information about the way you use your phone. They're asking you to install a special piece of software onto your smartphone, and this software collates information on the features you use on your phone.

They'll pay you £15 for signing up, and a £5 a month to keep the software on your phone. They're prepared to offer you this cash as the data they gather is extremely valuable to network operators and phone manufacturers.

Initially a little worried about installing a piece of legitimate "spyware", we were at first sceptical, but we're now giving Mobile Panel a go, to see how it works, and if it's a nice way of making a few bob without handing over too much data to a third-party.

If you're interested in trying it out, you can sign up via this link, or from their marketing image we've added below.

If you've signed up, we'd be interested to know how you get on. Let us know, or add a comment to our blog...
