Can't say I'm really sure what an *Freelance Internet Researcher* does. Do
you just research things on the Internet? How does this differ from Market
Research? I was involved in some research last week that basically involved
looking at pictures of new mobile phones and discussing them in a chat room.
This was all under the guidance of an administrator. Perhaps you need to
contact market Research companies that do this kind of thing. Also I know
this is only a forum but you made some bad typos...
>people I write too
This doesn't look good when saying you have excellent communication skills.
