do some unofficial polling... chat with some of the people who visit
the site (existing clients, etc.)...
i recently discovered that a client of mine who *knows* better (so to
speak) does most of his surfing at home on an old P90, 28.8
modem on AOL... and a lot more use AOL than i thought, meaning
i was making some flawed assumptions about *where* these guys
do their surfing...
