If you have a full-time, salaried position, comp time is the time over 40 hours that you work which you are allowed to take off at a later date.
So, for example, if you work 45 hours one week, you could get 5 hours comp time, which gets added to your paid time off or vacation time.

The enter key is broken in this survey. Instead of it taking me to the next page, it takes me to the previous page.

7 Designers of Color Come on Down
Hopefully there will be more diverse audience this year. Black Web 2.0 will do the best we can to get the word out.

8 Sponsorship
I will take part in the surver, as I did last year, but with a very targeted viewership of business professionals of well over 30,000, surely it would be possible to attract a related sponsor who would provide some sort of prize for one lucky person as a further incentive to take part?

9 another word for comp time
Another word for comp time is ‘time-in-lieu’ (as in, in lieu of overtime) and it’s what’s used in several other places. Would it be worth adjusting the wording to help?

In which global region are you located?
- North and central America – South America – Europe – Africa – Asia – Oceania – Antarctica
I’m from middle east, and in your list, middle east dose not exist
Did you see ever anyone from middle east who using the web or doing web programming?
Look at the order: North America!!, South America!! , Europe!!
I’m suggesting to take a look to your geography books.
