Filesharing questionaire

As a favor to a friend of a friend, I have been asked to let interested readers know about a a questionnaire on file-sharing put together by someone carrying out research into the ways people use the internet. It takes about 15 minutes to get through, so if you are so inclined go here.

Reader Comments (7)

was really inclined to go and help the friend of your friend. got completely switched off directly after reading that i could win an ipod nano when i participate in this questionaire. it gave me a clear signal that they don't ask for the opinion of old me. They are only after i-tuned young sharers ;-)
Also i failed to answer the queston if i'm going to do it for the ipod or for the friend of your friend!!!

Arabist,

Since you are of Moroccon origin maybe you can answer this qusetion for me...

I'd like a moroccon to answer that...

Maalesh fadfadation.

I was the skinny kid who never played football, or when he was forced to was either a sub or (very ineffective) goalkeeper. I am more interested about the bureaucratic scandals of Zamalek Club than the actual games. Can't help you except to say Moroccans are even more emotional aout football then Egyptians.

Yes, but why the hatred comments by some moroccons against Egyptian teams, players or even country??

We like you guys, and in return we get this?!!

Jan 25, 2007 at 8:19 AM | Unregistered Commenterfadfadation

In other words, what wrong did we do to deserve such comments??

Unfortunately, football hooliganism is an international phenomenon. Don't hold it against the Moroccan people. If it makes you feel better a Moroccan journalist wrote a great piece last year about when Egypt beat Morocco at the Africa Cup that was full of praise for the Egyptian spirit.
