User: Mister Poll

Hey bob... The new search shows things in relevancy order, much the way Google or other web search engines do. The keyword accuracy is now much better than the old search was. Plus, before it would only look at the poll title and description. Now, it actually looks at question and choice text as well, although those matches are given less weight. This all goes into a relevancy "score", and that score is used for sorting, with the most relevant matches shown first.

I do agree with you though. I have noticed that it would be nice to have the date somehow worked into the formula. I have it on my list and will see what I can do about it.

Yes, at last, Mister Poll 2.0 has launched! I think you'll all agree that the old site was looking a bit dusty and needed more than a little makeover. Well, we actually scrapped it and redesigned it all from the ground up. Not only does the whole place look much better, but it works much better, too. We have new question types, such as fill-in-the-blank and essay. Nearly every feature has been enhanced. Take a look around and let us know what you think.

A big thanks to everybody who helped us test during the beta period. Your help made this a notably better release. Thank you to everybody who has used Mister Poll over the last 10 years. You are the ones who make this site possible, and your suggestions are what shaped this new beginning.

Here's to another 10 years.

Bugs!

I've seen one too many wasps/flies crawl into an open soda can to blindly put one to my mouth that has been left unattended.

No thank you. :-)

There's an entertaining and long-standing satire on English language reform, sometimes credited to Mark Twain:

The copied polls are now history. Copy cats are lame.
