I got polled by Gallup Sunday night. It was kind of fun - I've imagined how those phone calls go, but I've always wanted to be a recipient. I love filling out surveys (and forms), so this is right up my alley

I've never been polled, but my family was a Nielsen family when I was in college! I have no idea how it turned out, and it was only for a week. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who enjoys filling out forms. I even get a perverse pleasure from doing my taxes!
never but I would LOVE it. I used to always fill out surveys when I was a kid in grocery stores. My mom was mortified. I swear that someone I know was recently involved with having the TV monitor thing attached to see what they were watching.. my brain is a soupy mess and I cannot remember who or the details... that just seems so creepy to me.
I am a total sucker for polls myself. I'll even do them for marketers.
I did a poll aroudn the last time the country was freaking abut a bird flu, and the first ten minutes of the interview were all questions about bird flu and what medicines worked w/r/t bird flu, etc. It was very exciting, and the competitive me came out when I started "thinking hey I am doing well on this test"
then it just went on and on and I was asked about what house hold cleaners I liked, and a bunch of other shit, I think people must pay in these commercial surveys for where in the survey you are placed (since so many people must hang up) cause by the end the questions were getting pretty stupid.

I think Mimi got polled once for political stuff. I'm part of an opinion panel, but it's all consumer/buying shit. I WISH it were a political panel.
