Re: software for running and analysing questionnaires easily?

Hi Leo,
there is a number of on-line survey services and some of them offer free
simple surveys or trial periods:

   - *SurveyMonkey* <http://www.surveymonkey.com/>
   - *Zoomerang Survey* <http://info.zoomerang.com/>
   - *QuestionPro* <http://www.questionpro.com/>
   - *Free Online Surveys* <http://freeonlinesurveys.com/>
   - *AdvancedSurvey* <http://www.advancedsurvey.com/>
   - *KeySurvey* <http://www.keysurvey.com/>

HTH,
