Now onto my Nielsen story... I got a Nielsen recruitment pamphlet dangling on my door handle a few weeks back. I am one who canceled cable at my previous home and removed satellite before moving into my current home. I am either an air watcher, ivi tester, or online viewer. I read the Nielsen pamphlet, then filed it into the recycling bin. A few weeks later I got a knock on my door in the evening, I answered, a lady stood there with a clipboard. She said "Hello I'm with Nielsen" and I said "okay." "We're trying to get some information about this neighborhood. Do you have cable or satellite?" she asked. "Neither." I replied. "No cable or satellite at all?" She asked again. Then I said "Neither, I watch ivi." She looked at me puzzled, then asked "Do you have kids?" and I ended by saying "Yep, two." And she thanked me and walked off. It was quite satisfying plugging ivi to a door-to-door Nielsen census. Full disclosure, I'm a beta tester for ivi.
