Research Methods for my Web Writing Paper

My research paper will investigate whether people use the web for medical advice. I plan to use brief, individual surveys to gather this information. I intend to survey a wide variety of people, from different age groups and occupations, to get a broad range of responses. In addition, so far I have found one similar professional survey that has been published online. I will compare these results to mine. Finally, I will also visit some popular medical websites to see what information is available to web surfers.
