P2P File-Sharing User Survey

[scase123]

Hi all,

I’m a masters student at MIT and my thesis research involves modeling user behavior in P2P file-sharing systems. As part of my research, I’m conducting an ANONYMOUS survey that will help me model the P2P “system” as it exists today.

The survey consists of 12 questions, and you can respond to all, some or none of them. The PHP data collection script does not log any identifying information – it simply logs a timestamp and the responses to each of the questions.

If anyone can spend a few minutes to help out my research, I would really appreciate it. The link to the survey is:

http://cc.media.mit.edu/p2p/

This survey is approved by MIT’s Committee on the Use of Humans as Experimental Subjects (COUHES). Information about confidentiality and other research guidelines can be found at http://web.mit.edu/committees/couhes/procedures_surveys.shtml

Feel free to email me at scase@mit.edu if you have any questions about the survey or the study itself.

Thanks all for your help!

Well normally I wouldn't trust a 1 post user that wants us to take a FS survey... but I seem to have a little trust in the MIT website.. but one question: why can't i view the source? Maybe its just me, but neither RightClick View source, nor View>source works in IE6

Sure, I'll take the survey. Always glad to help a MIT student out.

view source seems kosher...right click with firefox showed view source box...
