Are you in?

Remember when I said I was thinking about studying weblogs for my seminar? You must if you had that question right on my quiz ;) The main hypothesis is not yet defined but it should be something concerning identity in blogging and a comparison between blog groups and groups in face-to-face relationships.
If you'd like to help me do this study and are interested in participating, these are the main conditions (terms of agreement):
- your blog name and web-address may have to be included in the study. All other personal data won't be published or even asked;
- the contents of your blog will be analyzed by me and my co-worker but this won't be more invasive than the act of publishing your posts (if you published something, then you're ready to show it to "the world", so to speak)
- After the content analysis we will ask you to answer a questionnaire/interview concerning the act of blogging, your motivations and blog and face to face relationships. Anything you don't want to discuss, you're obviously free to say so.
- The main results will be translated to English and communicated to you, if you like. This is a serious academical assignment so you can trust us to be ethical and all that. Devil Mood won't be working on this (she's just a crazy girl that blogs), the other serious side of me will take care of this part of my life ;)

I'm in...sounds like fun...and, more importantly, I may be asking you to return the favor later, depending on what actually happens with my thesis in a year (though it will be from a different perspective, more information science, maybe the epistemic framework for blogging, or some such).

Devil Mood said...

Kimananda: Thank you and I sure will return the favour if I'm able to answer to your requests...that sounds complicated ;P But I'm sure you'll make it easier for me...

Hey, I had a clix account at one point. All I remember about it was that the password was so complicated, that I forgot it about a week after I left the country, and so haven't been able to use it since!

And, I'll be in Lisboa for the month of July, funding permitting. If I visit Porto for a weekend (highly likely, if only on my way to Tras-os-Montes), can I offer you a coffee at the Majestic?

Devil Mood said...

Kimananda: That'd be great :) My password to the clix account is really complicated too but I've memorized it and I don't want to change now ;)
