Abstract
The nature of qualitative research lends itself to the use of the Internet for a variety of reasons. The Internet can be used for recruitment and provide immediate feedback from participants, either through online interviewing, or open ended questionnaires. Interviews may be conducted online with a set list of guiding questions, and follow up can be accomplished with email communication. If information is received in digital form, there is no need for labor intensive transcription that qualitative research often involves.
