Hello everyone,
I am new to Internet research, and I was wondering if anyone had published anything on "trolling"? Trolling is a big problem in the blogosphere, and I am interested in ways to combat it.
I come from a bioinformatics background, and I have devised an experiment, based on randomized double-blind controlled trials, to test the various ways to combat trolling. Would anyone be interested in such a trial?
Thanks,
Tom
