Inquiry Mail Survey
Currituck County Department of Travel and Tourism Inquiry Mail Survey Mail Survey Methodology 3,000 surveys were mailed to a stratified random sample of the total inquiries received by the Currituck County Department of Travel and Tourism (CCDTT) during a twelve-month period. The sample was stratified by the time of year received during the twelve-month period and by the inquiry source. The surveys were mailed the week of July 3, 2007. A total of 318 surveys had been received by September 15, 2007 representing 10.60% which is within the acceptable response minimum of 10% to 15%. Thus, N=318 for the total response in this report unless otherwise noted. The survey instrument (questionnaire) was printed on a single sheet of 11” x 17” white paper and folded to a four page 8 ½” x 11” letter size format. The survey was mailed in an envelope at first class postage rate and a postage paid return mail addressed envelope was included. The survey included an incentive of a drawing for a free weekend visit to be selected from those that responded to the survey. The survey contained forty-two (42) questions. Each question is stated in the following pages in numerical sequence and the findings and responses follow each question. Observations and conclusions based on the responses are printed in italics after each response. Additionally, it should be noted that fifteen (15) intercept interviews were conducted during the month of June 2007. The purpose of these interviews was to delve more deeply into specific issues on tools used for trip planning, visitor behaviors, expenditures and perceptions. -
Magazines, Blogs and Design…Wiki-Style
THESIS WRITE MY THESIS: MAGAZINES, BLOGS AND DESIGN…WIKI-STYLE Brittany Watson Interior Design In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Art Corcoran College of Art and Design Washington DC Spring 2010 2 Thesis Statement Design blogs and other forms of social media have assumed a more prominent role over the traditional printed magazine in disseminating information, creating a sense of community, encouraging artistic collaboration and identifying new tastes, which is explored in this thesis through author-mediated crowd-sourcing through a blog called Write My Thesis leading to an online magazine, Baker Street. Abstract The day Domino magazine folded in January of 2009, a silence was heard throughout the design community. This marked yet another design magazine that had fallen victim to declining advertisement sales in recent years. Until this point, magazines were at the forefront of identifying design trends and up-and-coming designers, while providing one of the only locations to provide guides of where to find products and how to assemble looks. The rise in social media, including blogs, vlogs, wikis, podcasts, wall postings, and photosharing, has quickly assumed a more prominent role in the wake of printed magazines. Like Wikipedia, this thesis is mass-collaboratively written by the users of the Web 2.0 through crowd-sourcing the content on a wiki site with the author acting as mediator and main contributor. The aim is to discover the benefits of social media versus 3 traditional print and how it affects design. The project describes the qualities that made the magazine successful in its golden age and how they eventually grew outdated as social media became more popular. -

Southern Living and the Progressive Farmer Magazines Select St
SOUTHERN LIVING AND THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER MAGAZINES SELECT ST. JOE'S NEW RURALISM DEVELOPMENT FOR 2006 IDEA HOUSE Located at JOE's First WhiteFence Farms, set in Northwest Florida Hill Country TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA, and BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA - (September 27, 2005) - The St. Joe Company (NYSE:JOE) announced today that Southern Living and The Progressive Farmer magazines have selected WhiteFence Farms, Red Hills, for a 2006 Idea House and Farmstead. WhiteFence Farms, Red Hills, is located just 15 minutes from downtown Tallahassee and 30 minutes from the coast in southeastern Leon County. When completed and open for tours in 2006, the farmstead home will serve as a public showcase for lifestyle ideas in the two sister magazines of Southern Progress Corporation. Developed and designed to recreate an "old farm and equestrian" feel, WhiteFence Farms is one of JOE's imaginative new real estate offerings that falls under the company's 'New Ruralism' concept in Florida. WhiteFence Farms will appeal to buyers, primarily Baby Boomers and their families, offering privacy, beauty, large space, and a way to reconnect with both nature and the land that was once at the heart of America's farms, ranches and rural communities. With the ever-quickening daily pace of life, homeowners are seeking alternatives to live, work and raise their families. "We are pleased to work with St. Joe on a first-ever joint magazine Idea House project for two of our top Southern Progress titles," said Bill McDougald, vice president and executive director of the Southern Progress Homes Group. "It's a great opportunity for readers of both Southern Living and The Progressive Farmer to see their favorite magazines display New Ruralism in action." Framed by two clusters of century-old live oaks and set in a meadow gently sloping down to a five-acre pond, the Idea House will rest on an impressive site that will include a detached garage, barn, workshop, and stable for horses. -
