Hello,
we would like to ask for your help and please participate in our online survey
“The everyday blogger”.
http://www.everydayblogger.uni-bremen.de/
We are interested to hear from all bloggers about their blogging activities and details around the digital domestication.
As part of our master thesis we investigate for a visual documentary film of user cases. This research is being conducted under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Heidi Schelhowe at the University of Bremen in Germany and developed by us, Danny Barrantes and Ina Pruegel, master students in “digital media”.
Once you finish, you will be offered the opportunity to become a possible candidate for the documentary film. This is voluntary and we’ll be more than happy for you to participate.
Please forward this link as well to other bloggers, so as many people as possible can take part.
Thanks in advance for your help
Ina and Danny

I really like a lot of your music. Bright Eyes is awesome, especially their first cd.

Hi,
I’m going to be starting a blog on Dental health with my boss. Could I possibly link to your blog?

Sure, Lisa, but I’m not sure why you’d want to link to my blog…?

You are quite secretive about you. Not bad though.

By the way, I love that sketch on the top banner of your blog. What does it tell?
