Ok, obviously there's been plenty of talk about different community-driven content sites everywhere. But as a scientist, I'm curious about social dynamics and want to take a sort of census. I don't know if this is considered against the posting rules (It doesn't seem to be), but I'd also like to invite anyone whose interested to take this survey. This survey is part of a study into online social dynamics. We’re trying to understand how people use content aggregation sites, what features affect their use, and what possible issues motivate them to switch between sites. We invite you to help shed light on this important sociological phenomenon by taking a quick approximately 5 minute survey for research purposes about what you like and don’t like about about the content aggregation sites you use. In the long run, we hope the results of this survey will contribute to making the platforms you love even better. It's strictly non-commercial and fully anonymous, and we will publish our findings in a blog post (in addition to academic publication) on our site (http://networkdynamics.org). Go to https://surveys.mcgill.ca/limesurvey/index.php?sid=97446&lang=en&97446X8879X361722=hackernewstwo to learn more about the survey and participate.
Thanks!!
