"Public and Private in the Blogosphere" is a study of changing conceptions of public and private. In this survey, I am targeting personal bloggers - individuals who record their daily lives on frequently-updated web pages.

In completing this survey, you will answer background questions, questions about your Internet use and blogging habits, and questions tailored to your preferred blogging platform.

Please answer all questions as truthfully and as completely as possible. On each page, you will find a series of questions to answer, with a "Next" button at the bottom to click once you've answered the questions. The entire survey should take you about 30 minutes to complete.

The success of this survey depends on its wide distribution. To that end, I ask that you post a link to the survey to your own blog and bring it to the attention of any other bloggers who might be interested in participating.
