This question was phrased by the source as follows: "On these cards you can see a variety of activities one can do on the internet. Please arrange the cards on the sheet in front of you according to how frequently you are involved in these online activities: writing reviews, comments on books, movies, CDs etc." (original German question: "Hier auf den Karten steht Verschiedenes, wie man selbst im Internet aktiv werden kann, was man dort machen kann. Bitte verteilen Sie die Karten entsprechend auf das Blatt, je nachdem, wie häufig Sie das im Internet machen: Kritiken, Kommentare zu Büchern, Kinofilmen, CDs usw. verfassen.")
