Searching for Local Information on the Web

[Liling]

Dear unicyclists,

Considering your interests in unicycling (an outdoor activity), the University of Colorado Denver invites you to participate in a study of local information search experience.

Looking for local information on the Web can be time-consuming and frustrating. Our goal is to identify the best blend of information source that meets your needs (e.x., find an outdoor activity to do during the weekend) so better systems can be designed. Your opinion is most valuable in helping us achieve this goal.

Your participation is voluntary and all information is confidential.

The survey takes 5-10 minutes to complete. If you are 18 or older, living in the United States, and have ever searched for local information on the Web, please participate in this survey by visiting: http://ouray.cudenver.edu/~lhsu/infoseek/

Your participation is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Sincerely,
