Our university has a webzine meant to publicize its research. The fellow who runs it wants to overhaul it and is seeking information about "how people look at the World Wide Web -- how they use it, where they linger and why, or whether they linger at all." He says he wants "to incorporate more flash -- and slideshows, video and all the rest -- in order to communicate university research and information -- so I need to know how people are using the web, whether their reading habits are different, whether prose is different on the web and so on." Rather a broad set of questions, I know, but if you have any good tips for him, could you please email them to him? His name is Roger Martin, rmartin@kucr.ku.edu The website in question is http://129.237.227.3/explore/v2n2/intro.html Thanks in advance, Nancy
I am working on a project, not for publication, that looks at how IRB's represent themselves on the web. As part of the project I am looking at differneces between institutions where online research is taking place and others. Therefore I would like to know what US institutions are presented on the AoIR-L? Thank you for taking the time to reply to this message.

Sorry to appear dim, but if I don't ask I'll never know, and I need to know... what is 'IRB'? I am at the moment a fourth year honors student here in Scotland and for my thesis I am using the internet to conduct some research. Whereas this was primarily met with frowns of disaproval last year I am now getting interest from particular staff members as their interest is spurred on by the fact barely any of them even use powerpoint in lectures let alone being up on internet research overall. I am hoping that my research will show people that would have otherwise snubbed the internet as a useless tool full of useless information, to be a tool of great use to sociological research/study. More about this can be found within my ramblings and others on sociopranos where this discussion of online research has been going for a few months now.

Lois, I believe we actually met at the AIOR conference in Minneapolis. I work with Amy Bruckman and am on the IRB at Georgia Tech. I'm a little confused by what you mean when you ask which institutions "are presented on the AIOR-L", but I'll be happy to help out in whatever way I can. I seem to recall that you were having nightmares dealing with your own IRB. Please let me know how I can help you out.
