The main disadvantage would be in case the pictures got into the wrong hands. Alot of strange people out there. If used carefully I would say there are more advantages.

Microsoft's Sharepoint software is really neat for creating questionaires for on-line or e-mailing.  As the others said, you need to exercise some control over your respondents. If you throw it out there for anyone, ask the wrong questions to the wrong group, etc., it will appear that you do not know grasp the concept of scientific research (which is the whole point!).

Their are really two ways to go about this.  The first is to buy some survey software that will allow you to program the survey yourself, however it takes a fair bit of know how to use these programs.  A well known survey software comapny is listed below. The other option is to hire a survey company to do it for you.  Though this can be more expensive, there is no comparison when it comes to the quality of the survey and the ease of making it, as the companies will literally do everything for you.  A well known, respected online survey company is Infosurv. They usually charge anywhere from $3500 - $6500 for the design, administration, and analysis of an online survey. That price includes survey design consultation and statistical analysis, and the price varies based on the level of results analysis that you need.  Their website is listed below, as well as a link to their brochure, where they actually list their pricing options. I hope this helps. \nhttp://www.infosurv.com\nhttp://www.infosurv.com/brochure.html\nhttp://www.keysurvey.com

The primary disadvantage, if you are going over the internet rather than just locally, is bandwidth. That is, it takes more data per unit time to transmit video than it does to transmit text or photos.\n\nSo, if you are using the internet, some viewers may not be able to use the webcams because they have slow connections such as dial-up instead of fast connections like DSL or cable.\n\nHope this helps!

emailing surveys isnt a very good idea. I would print the surveys in a paper that has your university logo to give it more credibility. Put the most interesting questions upfront, or else people will get bored. Another good way would be to do it by phone.

Not necessarily.\nSome participants may not respond to all questions, so then your response rate for that question would be lower than the response rate for the survey.\n\nResponse rate can't be larger than participation rate.

If you buy locally, you can go in person to complain or compliment the seller.  That's a huge advantage.\n\nOn the other hand, the disadvantage is that it may cost more or you may not be able to get the exact items you want due to limited selection.

Taking surveys means you are dependent on someone else. Legit? I'm sure some are but I think it is better to be in control yourself.\n\nConsider this...start your own business online. You can set up a website as an affiliate where there are no fees to join. Basicly you will only have your web hosting fee and advertising.\n\nWrite ebooks. This is one of the hottest things going. People are hungry for information.\n\nWhatever you choose, choose wisely. Make a decision to do it, then do it with all your might.  This site will give you some more ideas to consider. Also some great articles.

Yes, there are legitimate survey groups on the Internet, but they do not need to advertise extensively.  In my experience you will answer 2-3 unpaid surveys from a firm for every paid one.  The best way to be part of such a survey is through magazines you may already subscribe to (Wired, PC Week, Conde Nast, etc.) or through local paid survey ads in the local papers (who also usually do online surveys or forward your info to people who do).

Disadvantages of e-banking:\n\nStart-up time:  Sometimes in order to register to the service, you may not get your password or security waiver right away for security reason.\n\nLearning:  It may take you a while to navigate through the ouser namestem.\n\nSite changes:  To top it, banks change their sites frequently, which may cause confusion and delays.\n\nSECURITY:  The #1 issue customers worry.  There is always questions and doubts whether or not something took place.  The best protection is check you address bar for suspicious addresses, don't write any personal information besides your username and password, and make a copy of every receipt or transaction

1) disadvantages:\n- comparability and availability (3 way- stick)\nin the regions where census data is problematic, it's availability can be a problem, and, obviously, this introduces unreliability into your estimations based on statistical methods;\nin the regions like US secondary data is so widely available that one has to posess superior ability to analyze it to be able to extract advantageous information about consumer behaviour not already extracted by competitors)\n- explanatory power\nif consumers are grouped by one demographics, say, age, there's ambiguity as to whether consumers at the border ages are sufficiently different to place them in separate groups;  also, you can not split them into groups to no limit - therefore you lose information about consumers if you group them based on limited demographics;\n\n2) advantages:\n- availability\nin countries like US secondary demographical data IS the cheapest (free) data to get;\n- in developed countries, with some effort and good statistical software, for generic products, especially, demographical data can explain up to 70% of change in consumer behaviour\n\n\n- this is not all, but everything I remember from my marketing course
