  8. Survey Investigation N = 100 • Are the people who spend time seeking web content also sharing it? “I rely on tools that aggregate popular web content from many sources: for example, Google News, Google Reader or Digg.” “I often seek out entertaining posts, jokes, comics and videos using the internet.” “I spend a large amount of free time viewing web content.” “I often tell people I know about my favorite web sites to follow.” “When I see something I like on the internet, my first thought is often, ‘Who else would enjoy seeing this?’” “I often post interesting web content to public places like my IM status, my Facebook profile, or Digg.”

  9. Yes: Sharers are Seekers • Over 50% of anindividual’s interestin sharing wasexplained by theirinterest in seekingR2 = .53, p < .001 • Social capitalhas an almost negligible effectAdj. R2 = .55
