Poll Results: How do you read this blog?
I didn’t get quite as many votes as I would have liked, but I think the spread is probably fairly representative of how you folks read this blog. Here are the results: 66% of you read this blog via and RSS Reader 33% of you read this blog by coming to the main page Nobody voted for any of the other options, though I know a good 20 or so of the readers for this blog do use email, which accounts for that missing 1%. I’ll have another poll in the near future. Stay tuned!
Poll Closing (a few hours left)
If you are a follower of this blog, I’d appreciate it if you could take 3 seconds to come to the main page and vote on the poll to the left. I’m trying to figure out how everyone reads WISB. Thanks!
New Poll: How do you read this blog?
I’ve decided to put up another poll, because I like this whole poll thing. This time, I really want input from you, the reader. I want to know how you read this blog. On the left side there you’ll see a poll. The options are: RSS Reader (such as Google Reader) Email Main Page (i.e. you visit the blog itself in order to read what I write) Electronic Device (such as the Kindle or Nook or whatever) Other (whatever it is, let me know in the comments for this post) So, how do you read this blog? Feel free to leave a comment!
New Poll: Help us pick a title for our podcast!
We need your help. Weirdside and I are making a podcast and we’ve managed to narrow it down to five titles. Each has its own charm and we’d like to get a little help from the interwebs on our final selection. So, on the left sidebar you’ll see a poll with five titles. Select the one you like the best (and leave a comment, if you so choose). First, some information about the podcast, to aid you in your voting: The podcast will focus on science fiction and fantasy literature, with some discussion of film, controversial topics within or relevant to the SF/F community, debates, and maybe some discussion of writing. There will also be some comedy tossed in for good measure. We want the podcast to be part talk show and part humor bin. Whether we succeed is another question. Each podcast will be about 30 minutes long. The object is to have fun for 30 minutes…for us and for listeners. It might also help to know what some of the titles refer to (podcast is assumed to be in the title): Stinkbeatles (this is the name of our little critique group) Sciffy and Fanty (the nicknames of science fiction and fantasy) Spellbots Undersea Ninja Factory (because we’re insane) Subgeneric So, help us choose!
Poll Results: Would you want to live forever?
The result are in, and they are: 50% said “Absolutely” 14% said “Yes, but only if I get a flying car” 7% said “No, it would get boring after a while” 28% said “Hell no…” So, a little under half of you wouldn’t want to be immortal, with a little over a quarter having a rather emotional reaction to the idea (ha). The rest would like it, but a minority had conditional leanings. Very interesting. Thanks to everyone who voted!
