Mini survey: Questions About Scuba Diving That Have Been “Bothering” You

By Amillson On September 8, 2009 Under diving FAQs

Bubble Ring A few days ago I sent out a mini survey, a very simple straightforward survey, to 10 of my selected facebook friends and family members only. That was my first ever survey using facebook as the media. Just be cool if you (my friends & family) didn’t get the survey invite. Rest assured: there are going to be more future surveys, simple ones, just like this one, I’ll extend the invitations. One will be for you.

If you are reading this and YOU are not in my facebook friend list, then if YOU wish, you can add me as your friend on facebook.

The survey is based on the title mentioned above: questions about scuba diving. I did tell the recipients of the message to go ahead and ask whatever questions that has or have been playing on their mind all this time. It really doesn’t matter what kind of questions for as long as they are related to scuba diving and you have not met the right answer for it, JUST ask.

Of course, I can find many questions from the Internet or even through my years of experience and remodel them a little bit, here and there, and post them on my blog BUT that will NOT benefit, not entirely, the readers of this blog.

I have been thinking and contemplating about this messaging my facebook buddies. Anyway, I gave it a try thinking that it would be way much better to ask my friends about this so that I can HELP them to answer their scuba diving questions or doubts or curiosities or what ever they may be called. For me, scuba diving is a passion. There are great values and “treasures” in this fun-filled activity. Everyone should try it – well, at least once.

Most of my friends know that I have been actively involved in scuba diving for the last 14 years. I just found out today that I’ve been tagged as a Missing In Action friend among my close school and university buddies. Here is the thing guys, along that journey, when I went “missing”, I’ve accumulated a great deal of experience about scuba diving in general, special tricks and tips, the divers lifestyle, management, ups and downs, funny & sad stories and many more. I intend to share them all.

So that is the whole point of this blog of mine: to share my scuba diving experience. And as I say earlier; the blog is also about blogging.

The feedback for the mini survey has been very good. Actually, I was surprised (and excited too) because I did get many simple replies, for this simple survey, from my friends in just a matter of less then 24 hours.

I will deliver my promise on the next series of articles to answer all the questions. The articles will be in the form of Q&A: question and answer. My goal here is to “release” you from your questions so that you can sleep tight at night. Heheeee…

I want to thank all my friends once again for taking part in this mini survey. I am signing off now to write YOU more articles.

Till next time. Take care. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
