November marks the third year of SCB. Since that day  in  October
when  SCB was officially inaugurated (many thanks to Shuja!), SCB
has come a long way. To many of us SCB  has  become  an  integral
part  of  our life.  Some of us can't countenance passing one day
without browsing through SCB at least once. To many, SCB  is  the
sole  source  of  news  from  Bangladesh, to others it is a forum
where we can discuss things relevant to Bangladesh,  to  interact
with  fellow  Bangalis  and Bangladeshis while we are so far from
home.

In order to gauge the impact of SCB, its  utility,  our  expecta-
tions  of  it, as well as to get some ideas about SCB readership,
we have decided to undertake a small survey. Please  take  a  few
minutes of your time to fill up the questionnaire and email it to
one of us. You may post it directly to SCB, but we  would  prefer
that you email one copy directly to us.

We will be reposting this survey from time to time, till we think
we  have  received sufficient responses. If any of you have ques-
tions and/or problems do not hesitate to contact any one  of  us.
If  requested all responses will be treated with the strictest of
confidences.

Just a warning: We know most of the regular posters and  a  large
number  of  those who read but hardly post. So be forewarned that
we are going  to  harass  you  by  email  till  we  receive  your
response. :-)

Yes, we mean YOU!!! :-)

Please send responses to any one of the following addresses:
