Barjak-- The folks on my project would be very interested in seeing your results on Internet use among European scientists. We have been studying communication among scientist in India, Kenya, and Ghana since 1994, and Internet communication more recently. Most of the papers are on http://worldsci.net. There might be a possibility for some collaboration here, comparing countries. Apart from AOIR, a good place to present results is the Society for Social Studies of Science (unfortunately there is a scheduling conflict with AOIR this year, but this is not typical). All the best!
