Subject: need expert advise

> Dear colleagues,

I'm studying at T. Shevchenko Kiev National University (Ukraine) - graduate
(first year) at the department of methods and methodologies of sociological
researches. Also I work at online research agency as a analytic.

Aproximate topic of my thesis is "Methodological grounding of internet
audience research", BUT in Ukraine there are no advanced scientists in this
sphere and nobody can't advise me on what questions I should focus on, what
is more or less important etc. I hope you'll be able to direct my research
vector in the right direction.

I want to show to Ukrainian scientific community that Internet audience is a
source of sociologiacal information and we should study this audience, their
socio-demografic characteristics, behavoir using different methods,
techniques (I'm interesting in combination of site-centric and user-centric
measurment). No one takes this subject seriously and I intend to prove the
falsity of this position. Because, in my opinion, investigation of internet
audience is very important not only for marketing goals, but for
socioilogical especially.
