Sims research project - please help
« on: June 14, 2012, 04:10:30 PM »
Hi everyone

As well as being a simmer, I work as a university lecturer. One of my research interests is how online communities use different web platforms and I'm conducting a project with Sims fans where I try and map how simmers are using the web. I'm trying to get as many simmers as I can from all over the online Sims world to complete it in order to get as full a picture as possible of the types of web activity Sims fans engage in. I'd love it if you guys could spare a few minutes to complete this anonymous survey.  There's also a follow-up project you can volunteer for - more details are on the survey.

The link is here: https://potassium.hallam.shu.ac.uk/limesurvey/index.php?sid=48496&lang=en

More info on the project is here: http://www.ruthdeller.co.uk/?p=231

Thanks

Rad/Ruth

This sounds very interesting, Ruth.  I'll definitely take part in the study.  I hope you'll share the results of your study with us.

I did the survey. It surprises me just how many Sims websites there are. I haven't even heard of most of them!

I remember fighting with a professor, trying to justify using The Sims in my dissertation. Lol. He won. I completed the survey!

This looks really interesting! I'm in the process of completing the survey now. So what field do you teach in, Rad?

EDIT: Oh, you lecture in Media. My bad.  ;D :-[

This might be a coincidence but the first time I tried to complete your survey, my computer decided to crash...

If at first you don't succeed, call it version 1.0.
