- 5. Research on the conversations People are on the internet, talking about you, me, shoes, television, cars and the internet itself. We don’t need a clipboard and ask, we can see their opinions. And instead of us taking notes, the traces are there all around you to observe. The conversations are there; hiding the opinions of people and new trends in business and politics.
- 6. Research on the conversations Digital representation online makes this formerly qualitative way of information gathering into a quantitative way of doing research; directly analyzing the data you are presented with! A unique opportunity to add to and shift from survey design to more and truly use the power of the internet.

- 9. Research on the conversations Gives you rich, potentially continuous research data of more and more people. People who are already engaged, passionate, enthusiastic and won’t feel bothered. (If you do it right.)
- 10. The Challenge Set up a research practice that can harness the power of using the online conversation. Deploy a study in the field and share it’s results. There is demand, but shift it’s focus! The demand is for knowledge, not for survey date. You are a researcher; you provide the knowledge; be it your intuition, works of scholars, survey data… or social media data.
