A questionnaire network makes it possible to create, disseminate, conduct
questionnaires or surveys on mobile handsets and to collect results for
processing and storage. The questionnaire network is powered by a
questionnaire creation tool and a questionnaire trading system. A
questionnaire trading system for QTime makes it possible for producers of
QTime, such as carriers, and consumers of QTime, such as product
manufacturers and advertising companies, to buy or sell QTime in bulk and
to trade in QTime as a commodity. In one embodiment, supplementary
information and preambles that are part of a questionnaire are captured
in audio form using the questionnaire creation tool and are stored
selectively along with the questionnaire in a carrier's questionnaire
repository or separately at a hosted repository.
