Want to help with fandom research?

[krait]

I just discovered fandomthennow/Fandom Then/Now, the dissertation project of Katherine Morrissey, who is comparing her Master's thesis research data from 2008 - shortly before the release of the Archive of Our Own - with new data, post-LJ and AO3.

If you would like to comment, visit the Fandom Then/Now site and check it out! If you'd like to help spread word of the project, you can link to the Dreamwidth account, LiveJournal account, Twitter link, and/or Tumblr account!

Important details, including how to have your identity screened or submit comments via an alterate method, can be found at the Identity Protection page.

This is the kind of thing that should be submitted to Radio Free Monday over at copperbadge! It's a great way to help for free, and RFM is always short on those things.

Oooh, yeah, I didn't even think about RFM this time! What a great idea.

Do you want to, or shall I? :D

It's all you, baby! Time to see your name in lights! Etc!

I just noticed they subscribed to me, and haven't had the time yet to check what it's about.
