VICNET Online Survey

This is the fourth and final trial of this survey, if you have filled it in before, please ignore it!

VICNET is the first community network of its type to be set up in Australia. Our two main aims are:

1. To promote equitable access to the Internet for all Victorians, and

2. To publish Victorian specific information on the Internet.

The reason for this survey relates to the second aim. We are interested in seeing what users both in Australia and overseas think of our web site/service. We also want to know how you think we can improve things.

This survey is designed to take only five minutes so please spend that time and let us know what you think!

Of course we couldn't leave out a bit of bribery - you could be in the running for a

fabulous VICNET prize

if you complete this survey!

Thank you
