Hey guys. I’m currently studying Sociology Honours, and I intend to be write my Honours thesis about online usernames and identity.

Now, I've done some in-depth one-on-one interviews already for my main information, but I'm also looking for some supporting data - which is where you guys come in.

I'm currently asking people on a few different websites if they'd like to do a short online survey about their usernames. The survey is about your experiences with names online, is completely anonymous, and should only take a few minutes to complete - though some responses are open-ended, so if you have lots to say, feel free.

This survey is open to anyone aged 18 or over, so if you are interested in taking part (and helping me complete my thesis) feel free to click the link below for more information.

I may also respond to questions in this thread, or via PM if you'd prefer.

Click here for more information and to take the survey

(Mods: If this isn't the best place for this post, feel free to let me know where it might be better suited.)

Thanks to everyone who's participated so far, and I hope more people keep it up.

I have just one point to make though - while you are welcome to skip questions if you don't want to answer them, skipping all the questions about usernames doesn't help with my results at all, given that's the actual topic of the thesis.

You don't have to write pages in the text boxes, but filling the multiple choice or rating questions would be appreciated.

Filled it with stuff.

Also, what's up with the syntax in this sentence:

Impressions - I use this name to influence who other people perceive me.

Should the "who" be "how"?
