Hmm... what's the difference between this experiment and a chain letter? -rhs

Your GUID is wrong; it should be: as098398298250swg9e98929872525389t9987898tq98wteqtgaq62010920352598gawst

Spivack shortened the GUID after I'd already posted this. He also changed some other things in the survey.

Spivack keeps updating the post to change the length of the GUID. That's going to seriously affect the outcome of the results.

This is sort of like a chain letter that was given life in order to study how chain letters work. And of course, Microsoft isn't going to send you $5 if you forward it. :)

Hmm, you're right. How useless. That means there's already two different GUIDs.

I don't really know what I expected, but five days into it and it's not what I expected. (If that makes any sense at all.) Or, maybe I've just lost my enthusiasm. Try as I might, I can't seem to stop myself from jumping into the meme pool. Adam, I wish you'd say a few words about this. Maybe I just need to be quiet until the results are put together. When it first started, I thought I might do a little tracking of my own and compile some numbers. Say, just age, or just location, or just some slice of the experiment. (I am not a tech person.) But, when I see the ever-shortening GUID, not to mention the original propagator going gaga over being in the Daypop top 5, I just kind of lost interest. And, I noticed a couple of the "fourth generation" propagators aren't even linking to the original typepad blog post, but rather to mindingtheplanet.com which redirects to an ecology minded corporation that makes medical temperature probes, among other things. We used to call them thermometers. Gee.
