On January 31, 2005, I published a TeX/LaTeX Online Survey and invited the TeX community, through the comp.text.tex forum, to participate in this unofficial survey of TeX usage. The survey was created from a LaTeX source, the final document was in Adobe's Portable Document Format (PDF). The purpose of this article is to describe how the survey was created and to report on some of the results.
