Dear Marius & Jeroen, Organising a workshop in May in Florence is a great idea! I would be interested in participating/attending. I have experience of conducting an online survey of bloggers and using social media e.g. Youtube to recruit participants. I have papers/presentation notes from talks I have given e.g. "Using Online Surveys in ESLR" ESRC RDI - Workshop 2: Methods & Approaches in Empirical Socio Legal Research. University of Liverpool. Jan. 2008, and 'How and why to research with online surveys', Realities, ESRC National Centre for Research Methods, University of Manchester November 2009 I can send pdfs or copies of papers to you if you're interested? In the meantime, I suggest Joeren, that you have a look at the website below, as you can work through the resources in your own time: http://www.geog.le.ac.uk/ORM/site/home.htm <https://staffwebmail.salford.ac.uk/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.geog.le.ac.uk/ORM/site/home.htm> Regards, Karen ---------------- Karen Mc Cullagh http://www.law.salford.ac.uk/mccullagh.php <https://staffwebmail.salford.ac.uk/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.law.salford.ac.uk/mccullagh.php> http://works.bepress.com/karen_mccullagh/ <https://staffwebmail.salford.ac.uk/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://works.bepress.com/karen_mccullagh/> Salford Law School Lady Hale Building University of Salford M5 4WT +44 161 295 7087
