Default importance of email for maintaining contacts in your previous country

As a university student in England, I am currently doing a research project into the use of email and internet by people who have emigrated to another country, and the way it helps them to maintain social contacts with friends and family in their previous country.

I am particularly interested in Australia as a country people emigrate to.

If anyone would be willing to fill out a short questionnaire via email to help me with my research it would be great if you could reply to this.

Thank you!

Seems bloody obvious to me. You had to go to university to discover that email was a good way to contact people?

We used to have paper once as well, you know. We used to make patterns on it with a sharp pointy thing, fold it up and put it into another piece of paper that was already folded up, scribble patterns on this as well with the same sharp pointy thing, and then put a smaller stickier piece of paper in the corner of the whole lot. People would then open the whole lot, disagree with whatever was scribbled and throw the whole lot away.

There you go, a lesson in history as well!

You got that research proposal accepted!? I guess it means you can piss about on the internet all day and call it study. Wait until you get into the real world, smiler.

It's much the same. Except we call it work.

everything we know is useless in itself unless applied to something else equally as useless..
