Seb’s Open Research
“…As part of my research into knowledge sharing practices, I’m conducting an online survey on two Web tools that can be used for sharing knowledge, namely, weblogs and wikis…”
Definitely worth 5 minutes of your time – and I will be interested to see results. But (and this is a big but), I think the results will not reflect the web audience in general as this is a specialised blog – immediately I’d imagine that the visitor demographic is somewhat skewed. Mind you, I can’t remember the last time I looked at a wiki, so maybe that’s what he’s driving at as well?
When (masterplan permitting) I start getting some traffic, I’m going to look at simple polling and questionnaire solutions – participo is very one way at the moment – comments work quite well, but that constrained, click click of a survey or quick poll would probably elicite more responses and I’m interested in what visitors think. Mind you, it would require me to think up some interesting questions :-) By way of elearnspace, a blog which I forgot to credit earlier – I just had another root throurh their rss feed – excellent links, think I’ll give up here and let these guys take the strain :-).
