Sounds interesting, and might encourage the reader to actually write down something, whereas just asking them to date + initial a slip on the journal doesn't always work. But you'd want to check that the info was legible enough, and complete enough, to be useful in the survey.

Then you could offer a prize for having their 'number' drawn out of a hat at the end of the survey period ?
