I’ve used a number of poll widgets and Wordpress’ Democracy plug-in but PollDaddy is, by far, the easiest one I used.

Good man Lenny! Glad to see it’s expanding again!

Quick update on the site, we have a had a few teething problems with the polls but everything seems to be working now.

Sorry if some of you came across errors on the site.

I’ve been using Polldaddy for a while. Liked its simplicity. Lets hope they haven’t FIU.

Having the ability to track polls, export analytics and all from a centralized site is the way to go, I could find myself use that a lot.
I’d like to know if there’s a way to export all your data in one click to xls/cvs/sql or any kind of data file. I wouldn’t like the fact that my precious data is stored on some site but I cannot do with it anything outside the site.

Apart from that, the design is very good, doesnt seems to be a 2 men operation and a self funded company which is good.

Great job guys.

I’d say it adds as much credibility as any of the trends of the past 15 years, which is to say that the professionalism comes from the blog, not the widgets. Myopia aside, of course.

I like the idea of widgets incorporating more seemlessly into the site overall.

However, when I was at the blog world expo in vegas this past week, a woman I met made an interesting comment. She told me that when she sees a blog with widgets, she perceives that site as more professional because of the widgets.

So maybe it is a good thing to have widgets stick out just a bit, and be known as widgets. Maybe, as this woman said, it lends an air of credibility and professionalism in the blogosphere.

“PollDaddy will increasingly focus on building widgets that integrate seamlessly into websites and don’t actually look like widgets. This integration, he says, will signify “a real coming of age for widgets.””

Now that is an interesting idea. A user neednt know the source of content he sees on a site. Basic problem I see with widgets is their interface problem, often they are too small or restricted. Widget in the end are presently useful only for showing content like feeds and polls. Ever seen google gadget which shows whole orkut site? It is funny

Hi folks,

We will be up and running again in about an hour. Just putting the finishing touches to version 2. Thought we would be ready earlier.

@Entrecard
The new site will allow you to remove the link in your poll as part of our new pro account.

Just had a Pizza.

Two guys to make a system one could code in half an hour? Add another hour for robust spam protection. At least they are “self-funded” (meaning, couple late nights with pizza).

#4 is quite the piece though. Want your cake and eat it too, much?

Good thing they chose a name that isn’t going to cause them problems down the road.

The site is probably down from all the traffic they got from Techcrunch!

We used polldaddy for a while. It was good but I didn’t like the non-removable link to polldaddy that appeared on the poll.
