Cyber Census 2008

On-Site Research Associates is currently conducting the first ever longitudinal ethnographic study of cyber citizens in the U.S.

The study will put a face on Internet statistics and provide our sponsors with documentary movies specific to their product or service category.

Cyber Census Shot

Here one of our participants, Briceson in San Antonio, sits in his kitchen on his laptop instead of in his office because this space keeps him interactive with his family. He wishes there was a better way to work in his kitchen area for all his family members. Multiple screens and a wireless keyboard might be a solution.

About On-Site Research

On-Site Research Associates is a full-service qualitative research company that brings an ethnographic focus to each project. On-Site conducts both:

  • Custom Proprietary Research: Methodology is tailored to client needs and content is solely owned by the client.
  • Syndicated Trend Studies: Bi-annual studies that are available for purchase where sponsors own their categories of content.

On-Site has been refining the art and science of Digital Ethnography for 20 years. Our researchers use unobtrusive hand-held cameras which allow them to become embedded into consumer habitats without the distracting presence of a video crew. Many other ethnographic companies go into habitats with a videographer. This results in what we call the “Lights, Camera, Action Phenomenon” where consumers act for the camera. On-Site’s hand-cam technique facilitates rapport development and the recording of authentic consumer reality; the interviewees tend to forget about the camera and let us engage in their lives.
