For Richer For Poorer Website Development

I have spent some time this week on developing the website. This has made me wonder about the process of qualitative research and how thoughts and findings slowly emerge from the process of research - we are putting these on the website, but is this the right thing to do? If one of the respondents looks at the website between recruitment and interview, does it 'contaminate' the data in any way to tell potential respondents what it is you are thinking? Or is it just a more honest way of communicating those higher level thoughts that are in your mind as you constantly refine your interview schema as you progress through the research? Either way, you are testing out your ideas about how the world works with the people who are informing you about how the world works. I feel pretty comfortable with it, but I do wonder what the purist methodologists might think.
