I think they're going to miss out on a lot of data because their webspider appears not to understand how LiveJournal works.
My guess is that it's about how blogging/blog-commenting is being used as a new mode of communication that takes the burden off other modes for particular kinds of communication. Plus a bunch of demographic stuff relating to small-world networks. Anybody else want to guess?
Guessing, or at least discussion, is encouraged, and i know how loquacious you are, so chatter away!
