Thanks for an interesting link to LIS-FORUM study / results. I am happy to see that even after 'retiring' from active librarianship in 2000 my name is found among top nine contributors! If some data about total number of subscribers to LIS-Forum (how it has increased from inception is given that will be useful.I vaguely remember that the number of subscribers was around 800 at one point of time. Future similar studies may perhaps take into account: 1.Length of thread of topics 2.Intensity of discussion in terms of period (say x messages in y days) 1 will indicate what type of topics draw interest 2 will indicate topicality (congratulations / condolence / examination) Dr P Vyasamoorthy President: Society for Serving Seniors 30 Gruhalakshmi Colony, Secunderabad 500015.
