Diocese of Toronto Emerging Technology Survey 2012

1. Intro

The Diocese of Toronto invites you to participate in a brief study of how clergy and lay leaders use new technology. The attached survey will take about 7 to 10 minutes of your time. Your involvement, however, will help the Diocese understand how key groups view emerging methods of communication. Please do not be discouraged if you are not familiar with some of the technology mentioned. Knowing the technology you use and your attitudes toward new social media products will help us make good decisions on how to serve you better.
