ABSTRACT:
The method for conducting a survey of users of an information document site located on a computer network includes embedding computer program instructions into an information document located at the site, where the instructions invoke a survey program, launching the survey program when a user accesses the information document, and activating the survey according to offering criteria based upon either a random or systematic participant selection. The method selects a survey participant from the users of the information document and then offers the participant an opportunity to access the survey by presenting the survey to the participant.
