Good point, thank you. In this case, I was considering avoid this problem by using a fix phone number. That's the point of using Skype. It is 0,01€/minutes in loads of countries. I would enable me to extend my scope of contact in a cheap way... I have to say that I didn't imagine that I could contact a manager with its "Skype ID", if he has one. But this remark has to be taken into account I think... Thank you ;-) Jeremy 2007/9/14, Asa Rosenberg <asa.rosenberg@sociology.gu.se>:
Not that I am an experienced scholar, ;), but I don't really see any differences either. With one exception, and that is that you will be adding eachother to eachothers contact lists (I assume) and that these contact lists are continously connected in a way that oldschool paper address books are not (you'll still be able to see echothers online status, changes of profile picture e.tc. after the project is over). So you'll have to figure out when/if it is going to be appropriate to end that connection, i.e. delete eachother from the contact lists. Or if you want to create a special Skype account just for this particular research.

Thank you for your answers. I am happy to see that it does not seem to worry you more than that. I will keep to discuss this around me and see if any other opinions arise here...

i would treat it as a telephone without much further consideration/ information. here, I'd speclate the primary concern is privacy and protection of data. I do not think that the infrastructure or surveillance/interception capacities in skype differ from modern telephony except perhaps in the off chance that your personal computer may have any number of issues, but i doubt that anyone would use such an attack just to capture skype calls, so i'd think that would be moot. _______________________________________________ The Air-L@listserv.aoir.org mailing list is provided by the Association of Internet Researchers http://aoir.org Subscribe, change options or unsubscribe at: http://listserv.aoir.org/listinfo.cgi/air-l-aoir.org
