    Did this a few days ago and received $6! They give it in the form of an Amazon gift card. The questions are mostly about how you manage your time when working on citizen science projects, whether you multitask, use multiple devices, etc., and how you feel about working on citizen science vs. other work. In case anyone was wondering what they asked about, or if it was legit. 😃

    I originally heard about it through the CitSci mailing list. If anyone is interested in what's happening in the broader world of citizen science, you can receive various announcements, job postings, requests for input on projects, etc. More info here: CitSci Listserv

    I think my professional affiliation probably DQ's me. 😃 But I'm glad you're all getting it!
