Please note: Pinecone like to strictly limit registrations for new panellists and you can therefore only join when you click on one of their banners that are advertised periodically on what could be any website!! Links to join this site are like gold-dust!! They also strictly monitor forums and websites such as this to ensure their link is not exposed making it practically impossible to join! Occasionally they may send invitations to current members asking them to refer friends but this is quite rare and is usually because they need to recruit specific people, such as pregnant women.
