Hello,

My name is Andreas, and for my final English project this year I am analyzing various Internet communities, one of which is Bananas.org.

In order to successfully complete this project, I am reaching out to the Bananas.org community. The link below takes you to a Survey that I have put together.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...hiZEE6MQ#gid=0


Results and a complete analysis will be available on our project website in the coming weeks:
Home - The Internet Experiment


The more data I obtain, the better our results and analysis will become. I feel this will be very interesting to many of the members on this community.

Thanks!

I've only gotten one completed survey so far...I just want to remind everyone that I'm going to be graded on this.

It's because its a community that I know well. We are also surveying a community that my partner in this project is very familiar with. I figured that if we were more familiar with the communities we would be able to evaluate them better. Also, if we just signed up and posted this survey, people would think its just spam.

Thanks everyone! And of course, the bananas came first. This was just assigned a few weeks ago.

It seems like a bit of an unusual assignment for an English class. Seems like something I would have done in a college psychology course. Are we going to see the results?

It's unusual because we were allowed to decide what we were going to do for the project. The theme of the project that we were supposed to work around was "Communities: Supportive or Stifling?" Out of all of the ideas for a project that me and my partner came up with, this one was the clear winner. And yes, within a few weeks the results will be posted here:

The survey is now closed. I just wanted to thank everyone who took time to fill it out. The results and an analysis of the data will be up on the website by Tuesday. The link is here:
