Users in Asia wanted for research

Hi all,

I'd be really interested in getting some advice on this.

I am running research inside SecondLife, for various products and websites. This is commercial research, a bit like focus groups only in a virtual environment instead of in the real world. We'll be paying people $200 Linden dollars to attend each session, maybe 1 hour long tops.

I'm just not sure where is the right place to advertise though.

Ideally the profile will be different each time - so for example one project might be a gaming website aimed at 18-25 year olds, another might be something else entirely.

Can anyone point me in the right direction of how to recruit people for that kind of research..? As I'm offering people Lindens for their advice and time I'm assuming that should be of interest to some people.

Thanks,

Gary

Hi Gary,

Maybe the Employment Ops and Help Wanted forum would be the best place to post your projects.

also try the same threads in other forums too. like the one at SLEX

I here in Japan give more details and i might help you out.
