Planet pulse surveys:

This is one of the best survey taking companies.They have a different kind of valuation system.The currency they use is "pulse".
100 pulses = $1.00 (USD)
They offer the surveys worth 100-5000 pulses ($1 - $50.00).The surveys are of "choose your choice" type.The company taking the survey asks the questions with 5-6 options provided. You need you select one of them( You will never have to write anything, thus saving your precious time).The surveys generally require 10-15 minutes.
The only disadvantage of Planet-pulse is the initial frequency of surveys.You may have to wait for a month or two, to participate in a survey.But, once started, you will never have to wait for long between two surveys.
Here is a sample of mails you receive from them (invitation to take a survey):

What are online surveys?
Online surveys are used as a technique for gathering information for companies. They generally are a set of questions which require a participant to answer and then the information is eventually given back to company for reporting purposes. The companies are willing to pay a fee to the participant for their opinions and time.These are somewhat like the form filling online.You have to fill up the forms which will include product reviews,suggestions for improvement etc.
e.g.If you are filling a survey about website review, they will provide you a link to that website.All you have to do is write 3-4 sentences about the website (mainly suggestions for its improvement) and they will pay you a few $ (anywhere from $2-$15).It takes 5-10 minutes maximum for each survey.

Why do the companies pay just for taking surveys?
Companies spend Billions of dollars a year trying to convince consumers that their products are the best and to buy their products and services. They achieve this by getting an understanding how people think and shop. Knowing this, companies are willing to pay you for your opinions. Overall your opinion could help the companies to upgrade their products and services.
