 Have a good night.

Shalom Everyone,

I am working on a paper about the use of digital media (Bar Ilan, google, listserves, mp3s, etc) for the study of Torah.  This paper for now is not for publication, but could be in the future.  Nevertheless, I think it is an important topic.

Of course, any online survey posted through an e-mail list will inevitably skew the data.  But, I believe the responses will still be of interest.

Thank you if you are able to participate.

Also, I welcome any feedback about the survey itself.  I am new at this type of work and I am sure there are ways I could tweak the survey for the future.
