Recently i participate to an online study i came accross, and i won a 30$ prize to be spent on amazon.com
Exept i'm not supposed to have access to amazon.com since i live in France, so i can't use the gift to buy something that is to be delivered, i can only spend it with non-material stuff. I already have a ton of audiobook i haven't listened to, so i was looking for alternative ideas on how i should spend it. Anyone?

And btw, if you are looking for a fairly easy way to make 30$, here is the study in question:

edit: btw, i found the study after reading a Nature article on the top 10 people that mattered in science in 2015. Brian Nosek was one of them (for different reasons than this particular study)

Amazon.com is for US residents, Amazon.fr is for France residents. You can't purchase stuff if you don't have an adress in the US or France (respectively). I do have an amazon.com account, that i managed to create by using a VPN and giving a random MacDonald adress in San Francisco as my US adress :D
But i can't use this account to buy stuff and deliver it to France... And i can't transfer a gift card from amazon.com to amazon.fr

btw, i encourage you to take the study, it really isn't hard to win these 30$ gift card. It is a very old project so i don't think that a lot of people take the study each month, so the competition probably isn't that hard. I think that it gives you a random study to complete when you click on "take a test", mine was about evaluating if people were sad or happy in some pictures. Basically they would show 2 pictures of a person's face that appears for a fraction of a second. And what i had to do was evaluating if the guy/girl in the second picture was sad or happy, and dissmiss the first picture. (they test wether the first picture you see influence you for your evaluation of the second picture).

What audio book do you use ? I have one with a super-small screen working electronic ink technology. E-Ink is VERY bad in my experience.


I need an audio-book that has a super thin screen like in some new laptops and has also the size of a normal paper or more. I would like to download some pdf files and read them normally (not downsized). It is even better if it has no application whatsoever like wifi. I have wifi app and I red somewhere that this eats like 2/3 of your battery consumption. :(((((




I suggest you wait until your birthday and buy some arcade steam game. Or otherwise, buy a subscription for a magazine or something. I know there is a good site called INFOTRAC. JSTOR is also good for reading articles or free books of all sorts once you pay for subscription. :)))))
