That'll be optional. I see this more as a way to (a) find out what the most
popular lists are, and (b) use it as a check to make sure the data isn't
biased in some way. If we have a strong response from tech vs. social lists,
the data may be skewed. I plan on trying to do some analysis based on which
lists as well as things like length of time online and other factors to see
hwo those change the preferences.... I expect there'll be a strong
difference between folks on tech-lists and folks on non-tech lists, for
instance, but without list information, it'll be hard to find that cleanly.
