My Survey

People:
1. How did you find out about/why did you become of estrip?

It was ((e:theecarey)) that put the idea in my head and ((e:ladycroft)) that put the nice pressure on me to join. On why, since I was always stopping by some of the parties anyway through Carey I decided I may as well join the fold.

2. How "out" are you about having a publicly accessible online journal. Do your friends know? Does your family know? Do your co-workers know? Does your boss know? Do you use your real name? Do you use your real photo?


Most of my friends know that I have my presence online somewhere. I doubt that they have stopped by and read any of my stuff or even gone to all 3 locations. My Family no way, except the remote possibility that my little cousins may have come across my LJ through logging through their home computer. My coworkers know I have one but don't have a clue on where I am or how to find me ( I work with really simple people). Boss, Yea right, ha Ha. I post my real name, or part of it here and Yes, that it my real photo (probaly keeps the women away!)

3. How many epeeps have you met real life?

Just the one's that attend the parties or happen to be working the Adelphia booth at a Sabre game or a go out with your EX night out :-)

4. How has estrip changed the way that you meet people, on and/or off line?

Well Online people here on this site actually meet up and do things, which was a breath of fresh air to myself. Offline Humm...maybe has made me a bit more open to giving a person that I have meet for the very first time more of a chance instead of running up against my aloof defense mechanism.

5. How has estrip affected you love life?
No, just made me more philisophical in regards to the human condition of people born in the 1970's in trying to create a love life.

6. How many of your friends have joined estrip because of your influence?
Zero

7. Are you from Buffalo/do you live in Buffalo?

Born in Canada, just live out in the scenic country with ((e:theecarey))
in supposedly the best small village in WNY according to Buffalo Business First

Equipment:
1. What type of hardware or software purchases have you made as a result of using estrip?

Actually upgraded to Adelphia Powerlink since my old dialup and this site just did not get along. With Dialup the e chatter was just horrific! Thank You to ((e:mrmike))

2. Have you used the mobile version of estrip? Why or why not?

No, I just never quite understood or found the mobile post user friendly. I do mobile post in LJ all the time, especially the VoicePost Feature(Paid Account)

Lifestyle:
1. In what way has estrip changed your Internet surfings habits? Describe the amount of time you spend on estrip, when you use it and about how long?

My Habbits are pretty much the same. I usually spend a half hour on the site reading entries. Sometimes longer if I am posting a journal myself as in this instance.

1a. How many journals do you usually read per day?

Depends on the amount of time I have at the moment and how fast the entries scroll down from the top 12.

2. In what ways has estrip changed the way you perceive your local community?

I have to say that it has given me a better perspective of the Elmwood district. I get info and vibes that I would not get from living with all of the birds, chipmunks and squirls as I do out here.

3. How has journaling about your life affected the way you spend your free time?

Not really but if there is an event I am sure to attempt to attend.

4. Has estrip changed your living situation in any way?

No, I have it pretty good out where I do. If my job changes then who knows what the future may hold.

5. Do you find that you mediate/document more of your experiences now that you share them with others?

Actually it depends on my mood. When I first started blogging it wsa about 4 years ago and I only updated the major stuff. Then I had a run where I was just multiposting on a daily basis. Now I pretty much document the major stuff, but the intermediate and minor stuff just depends now on my energy, mood and time available.

6. Has publishing on estrip affected the way that write?
It has made me a better speller.

7. Do you have other online journals? If so, with what service and has estrip affected your usage of that journal?

Oh, I do still keep and update regularly my Livejournal and I have had it since 2002 and do not see myself giving it up until the day 6 Apart falls apart and or shuts down the site.
It has affected it in the sense that i do not post as frequently over there as much as I have in the past. There are times where I do a "Double Post" and simulcast an entry. It is just that they are seperate but equal, (Yea, Yea, Really bad term to use) My LJ is pretty much my "Dark" blog. The security measures help in that regard since I can control who views entries. my Estrip Journal is my "light" journal. Not that one is better than the other one, it's just two different aspects of my life that balance each other out as I see it.

8. Have you ever gotten in trouble for using estrip at work?

I secretely wish that it would :-)

9. If you have stopped using estrip, why?

No, still here until people get sick of me and stop reading
