This month you can find the pollsb customizable poll widget on some really cool sites:
Blogtv is using our poll widget to have an election poll.
Bella and Edward, a website dedicated to the Twilight book series, polls its readers on their expectations from the upcoming Twilight movie.
Gameriot, a website dedicated to Blizzard games, posted a poll about some controversial new features of Diablo 3, while Diablo3x, another Diablo 3 fansite, posted a poll widget asking about Pvp in Diablo 3.
JBFan, a Jonas Brothers fansite, posts weekly polls on the ever popular Jonas Bros.
Work on the new homepage is still underway. Red-eyed, scruffy developers crowd the water cooler as the race enters its last phase. We’ve been playing with the monster for a week now, and we like it a lot. It will certainly make an impace on the site.
One dilemma we still have, and wish to share with you, is the Obsessive Pollsters dilemma: as you can see, the bottom of our new homepage is dedicated to top users. It includes the following weekly charts:
Top Voters: users who voted on most polls that week.
Top commentators: users who commented the most that week.
Popular pollsters: users who have created the most popular polls that week.
Obsessive pollsters: users who have created the most polls that week.
We’re not 100% sure about that last term. What do you think? Should we keep calling it Obsessive pollsters? Or should we change it to something else? got any specific ideas? Let us know.
Wow. Jonas Brothers fans have certainly taken a liking to polls boutique and are posting lots of Jonas bros. polls all over the place. Polls include the classics: Which Jonas Brother are you? poll, and favorite camp rock song, and even the interesting: “If the Jonas Brothers could only have one thing: good looks or good music, what would you want them to have?”
Putting up our personal pictures, videos and music online is nothing more than a way of asking: what do you think about my new outfit? should I cut my hair? Should I get this tattoo? I made this video, what do you think? and so on… More often than not, we need others’ opinions to keep ourselves in check, and be aware of other points of view. One of the best ways to getting an advice that will be truthful and honest, is trying to get the outsider’s opinions, people who don’t have any obligation to be nice, who have no intencives to embellish the truth: the crowd.
On polls boutique, asking questions like that is made easy. Just upload your pictures, your videos and audio, and enjoy instant feedback and answers from loads of people from all over the world. Instantly find out what people think about your new haircut, your tattoo, and your hair:
Here’s a great way to use photo polls: going to a party and not sure about that new dress? Wanna cut your hair but not sure if it’ll go well with the ladies? Need instant, non-biased answers to help you decide if you should start working on a weight loss program? Photo polls are the tool for you.
In just 5 seconds you can post a “how do I look?” poll on polls boutique and enjoy quick answers from people all over the world. Need your friends’ opinion on the matter? send the poll to your friends. Post the poll on your blog, or website.
We’re seriously considering starting a new program that will turn a few prolific Polls Boutique users into our editorial team. Those selected will be emailed with news stories (in topics they’re interested in) and will be invited to post relevant polls.
As a first step, we’re interested to know which of you will be interested in joining such a program. We posted a poll about it.
“Polls Boutique makes it easy to add multimedia to your polls. You can add images, audio, or video clips. You can write introductions to your polls and inlcude hyperlinks. And you can share your polls with others either through the Polls Boutique web site, or through a widget that you can embed on any web page. You can view the results of your poll at the Polls Boutique site, complete with some basic demographic info, since anyone who signs up for Polls Boutique needs to give up their location, gender and age.”
They’ve also uploaded a poll comparing us to another online poll website. We really like the results:
Some of you already met Amanda Rama on pollsb.com, and some of you know her from her blogtv show. Every Tuesday at 8pm EST, Amanda takes her viewers on a live journey through the polls of polls boutique. You can also find excerpts of her shows on Amandarama on youtube.
