Hi Gang,<br><br><div>This is somewhat off-topic...<div><br>I'm writing an article for a journal and I'm conducting some primary research on how people participate on the web. </div><div><br>I'm going to be making all the raw data available for anyone to analyze once the survey is closed (open source research!).</div>
<div><br>I'm looking for more people to take the survey... It takes 2-3 minutes... really!</div><div><br><a href="http://bit.ly/UbWfO">http://bit.ly/UbWfO</a><br><br></div><div>p.s... just thought I'd share my first experience playing with Facebook advertising to get people to take the survey. My ad priced out at $.48/click. I used up my one day $25 budget in a couple of hours, maybe less, not sure when it started showing (52 clicks from 92,000 impressions). I got 1 completed survey for every 5 people who clicked on the ad. So that comes out to $2.40/completed survey. End of that experiment... way too expensive for me. But it was interesting to jump in to that world.<br>
<br></div><div>Here is the text of the ad I used. I added a head shot of me to give some "warmth" and try to distinguish it from all the adverts out there that are trying to get people to buy something:<br><br></div>
<div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0.8ex; border-left-width: 1px; border-left-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-left-style: solid; padding-left: 1ex; ">
I'm writing an article about participation on the web and I'm doing some research. Please help by taking a short survey. - Shai Gluskin</blockquote><div><br></div>Thanks again to anyone who takes the survey. And even more appreciative to anyone who spreads the word.</div>
