Subject: Help NS With A Survey... Please
This winter we were approached by PhD student Thomas Langenberg who is currently studying Social Network Analysis in search of detailed information on how members in online communities such as Newschoolers share information, and in general interact with each other on an ongoing basis.
In the interest of the great concept of learning we decided to help, and we’ve done so by implementing a survey through NS that we’d now like the community’s help with (i.e. you, reading this right now). By participating you’re aiding both the research project and Newschoolers and you even have a chance to win some prizes. All the relevant information is laid out below by Thomas and he or I will be happy to answer any question you may have. Thanks to everyone that takes the time to help!
You can learn more about the survey here (& under Interact \ Survey): http://newschoolers.com/ns3/web/content/pagetemplate.php?name=survey&page=survey_main

If you consider yourself as a regular visitor of the NS website, it would be great if you could fill out the survey. In the questions that ask you for "information contacts", just leave the default answer, which is "--No_Contact--".
Just let me know if you have any more questions.

Thomas
Dear all,
I am very glad that we posted that survey today. It'll be great to see how you guys are connected and you you contribute to progressing the industry.
I really encourage you to do the survey, because it is fun, you can win some nice prices, and you start thinking about how valuable the NS website is for you!!
Please do not hesitate to get in touch with me if you have any questions regarding the survey or my research!

its not that i dont have a contact thats really important. its that everyone on NS has different info and some of it can be really good.
i mean, sure the whole ENOM crew has got some good industry relationships i guess, but so do some random people that work at ski shops that dont post regularly.
i left them as no contacts, but thats not really true.
people on NS are connected even if they dont know each other, so its not like we dont talk to someone we dont know even if that person has some sweet info.

Hey Anthony,i took it,it was pretty interesting and i'd like to see what you come up with eventually
thank you very much for taking it!! The plan is to post some interesting insights and results on the website once the survey is done. I am sure it will help you and the NS team to increase the power and impact of the website!
To make the survey successful, it is very important that as much members as possible take the survey!
So thanks a lot and spread the word about this survey and the usefulness of taking it.
Best,
Thomas

thanks for the comment.
The core idea of the contact question it that you think about NS members you are most often in contact with on the NS website by either asking them for info/advice or who come to you to ask for info/advice. If you know this person from the NS website that is exactly what the survey is looking for. The contact does not necessarily need to be a contact you know in your real skiing life.
the survey is mostly concerned with your NS contacts, who you meet and interact with on the website. i used the "skiing homebase" question or the question "is there an NS online contact that you go skking with offline" to "kind of" get a feeling of how similar the respondent's online and offline network(s) are.
Updating your answers
If you feel like you want to update your answers, I implemented a short period of time (2 days), which you can use to update your answers.

Hey pjbball04,yo im not taking it it takes 20 minutes sorry
that's ok! if you cannot spend 20 minutes of your time on a survey, I can totally understand that. So don't worry!
However, if you still feel like having a look at it, you can just answer the first three questions, which are already something. We ask you about how you think about your favorite ski brand.
You furthermore have 2 days to update the survey, so if you do 3 questions today and 3 tomorrow that makes already 6, which would be great.
In any case, if you simply do not have the time or do not want to take it that is fair enough!

everyone should be taking this survey, it doesn't take long nad definitly helps out a lot, and will be pretty cool to see what comes of it.
i think the concepts great and i just filled out the survey, but alot of my "information" comes from random people through forums. Sure there are a few friends i will ask, but the survey seemed greared more towards who do you message (idk if i missed the point?) cause there are a bunch of members who post in ski equipment who i respect/ seem knowledgable, but i never would directly ask them. Other than that this seems like a cool idea. good luck
That thing took a while, but worth it.

i'm assuming that when it asks for an alias it means just your username, which is an alias of your real name, correcty? thought it would be a good point to clear up in case anyone thought it meant alias like it's used in the forums as a second username.

Thanks a lot!! I know answering a survey tends to be boring. Especially social network surveys are kind of long because questions seem to be very similar. It is even more exhausting to build them. It took me approx. 2 months to set the questions up, to double check them with my prof, and to streamline the whole survey .... from May 31 2006 5:10:44:ahhh it was so long and rediculously boreing. yea i hope it helps but try to shrink it down. my ADHD cant handle it.
However, results are always very illuminating, because they show connections and ties one would not have thought of beforehand!
This is going to be very cool, the results I mean. Will you post them on here?

Haha, I didn't know you could skip parts of the survey. My survey was kind enough to remind me to fill out all the numbers that I'd skipped over the course of taking it. That was fun and informative, though, and it will be interesting to see the results.
so here's my philosophy... if I can get through the rest of the week without significantly fucking up the rest of my life, i've made progress.

Dear all,
here the current stats. We have 658 replies to the survey. 250 members have taken the full survey and 408 members have skipped a couple of questions.
I am working on a first glimpse into the NS network. I'll post a first network map tomorrow. It looks pretty interesting.
Keep up the good work and thank you so much.

p.s. an iPod gift certificate is a $25 coupon with which you can buy music from the iTunes website.
