Occupy Media Survey said… My name is TJ, and I am working with a team on a research project titled "Occupy Media Survey!" at Uppsala University in Sweden. The leading professor on the project, Christian Fuchs is also the chair of the European Sociological Association's Research Network for Communications and Media Research.
The project attempts to answer some of the following questions: What is the role of social media like Occupii, Facebook and Twitter in occupations and protests? Was the Arab spring a "Twitter and Facebook" revolution? How does the Occupy movement use social media? Is it a social media movement or something different?
Therefore we are conducting the OccupyMedia! Survey. We invite some users of Occupii to participate in it, and would be extremely happy if you could take 15 minutes time in order to help us find out what role social media play in contemporary protests:

If you have any more questions about the survey, please contact us. If you do not find time to participate, then please simply ignore our request and excuse any inconvenience. Thanks a lot!
Further information about social media research and the background of this survey can be found in this article:

If you find this survey to be useful, then it would be great if you can also tell others about it.
Best, TJ with Occupy Media Survey

gael.bage said… If anyone needs a break from the front line and a bath or is homeless i have a room spare while my mother is in long term respite care but they would need transport to get here you could phone me 01797 230780 and there is always the sofa,
gael.bage said… Thank you for your reply Malcolm, I imagine you must be very busy getting brighton up and running again.i am not very clever finding my way about the system either, If I find a group creators support group I will let you know. Are you planning an Occupii Brighton group here ? It could add to your numbers and gain you more supporters that are not front line but help and support in other ways. If you have poets there could you suggest they link to my Occupii Poetry group please. My other group is Occupii Love we all need that to coexist peacefully ! I would love it if you joined. Peace love and unity from Gael
gael.bage said… Welcome Malcolm, good to see you here, Brighton is my nearest occupy,I live near Rye, E Sussex, but I could find very little about their activities on the internet, perhaps you could point me in the right direction ?

I was just endiing a campaign in Michigan against our Governor, and wondered what more was out there, what more can I do to help make my country the place I used to love, when I stumbled across a thing called Livestream, where people with the same purpose (supposedly) or like mindness could come together, chat, discuss, plan, and act and I was to say the least, excited. I started chatting and made so many friends and it was then I realized, that I had been wrapped up in my own small…
