Questions about how we connect

As many of you know, I'm in my almost last semester at the University of Michigan School of Information. I've been taking a course called Information Culture, which is pretty much sociology of the internet.

At the moment I'm working on a paper about Milliways and all the various ways that we're connected to each other. One of the things I find that makes Milliways such an amazing community is how while we start with one Livejournal community, we end up connecting in a myriad of ways. As a way to get a sort of snapshot, I'm looking at the DDOS attacks and their effect on Milliways and how we interact.

I created a short survey over here, which is completely anonymous.

I would be grateful for any response and for taking the time to fill this out. I'm going to crosspost this to the Milliways' Back Room.
