Few days ago I've tried to throw a survey about world price comparison websites for my university project.
I have thought of an idea... maybe I should use the web to do this research/survey.
So I logged into Google Docs and made the form for my survey and was all excited about it...
Then I logged into my Facebook account and tried to ask some people around the world to answer only few questions... only 8 very simple questions...
But guess what - the people over Facebook are not as nice as I thought they would be. Most of them just ignored me (obviously) and some even cursed me...
Then I took some time off to think about what I just did and realized that in our weird world,we have so much power and so much knowledge thanks to the internet, but yet - we can't get even the basic information when needed.
I know it was stupid of me to think people will actually respond to my request,
But still... I always try to see the good in people.
I thought that there are some people that won't mind to spend less than 10 seconds to just answer few very basic and simple questions.
Go figure... I guess it was too much to ask.
I just think I should point it out that the people over Facebook are the most-less nice over the web. On the contrary - people over Livemocha.com were very nice and pleasant.
Livemocha.com to whom who doesn't know is a place where you can learn and teach different languages while others actually help you to improve it.
Though I never took any course over Livemocha, I still think the people there are much nicer than the people over Facebook.
Actually I found myself some nice friends there...
Oh... don't think I'm advertising Livemocha over Facebook or anything...
First - they are linked together... I think they have some kind of an agreement between them.
Second - that wasn't the point of my discussion...
I just thought maybe by writing you all of this you perhaps help me with my survey.
The main question is:
Please name the most well known price comparison website in your country
(I actually need to know which country).
And that's it...
If you would like to help me some more - here is the link for the full survey.

As mentioned above, it's only 8 simple questions...
Thank you for reading my discussion
Gad. :)
