GOOGLE is offering money in exchange for users’ search history in a bid to “learn more about how everyday people use the internet”.

The new Screenwise project is asking for volunteers to install a Chrome browser extension that allows data to be collected in exchange for “up to $25 in gift cards”.

The website says those who sign up will be given a $5 Amazon.com Gift Card code, and then an addition $5 gift card code every three months for staying with the project as a “thank you.”

Google is also reported to have a more extensive version of the program in which web surfers participate by installing a “high-end router”.

The Screenwise Data Collector project is offering $100 on signup, plus $20 per month up to one year’s involvement, technology website Ars Technica reports.

“What we learn from you, and others like you, will help us improve Google products and services and make a better online experience for everyone,” the Screenwise website says.
