I recently discovered BuzzDash, a “Web 2.0” web application for creating web polls. Below is an example of a simple poll I created about my recent RECAP session on podcasting lectures. Go ahead and “vote” by clicking on one of the choices, and watch the results update instantly.
Note that you may need to set your browser to accept cookies in order to vote. If you register for an account on BuzzDash, you may add comments to your response. Plus you would then be able to create your own instant polls. These tiny “BuzzBites” are housed on the BuzzDash server, and you can link to them from your web site or blog, e-mail them to friends, or house them as publicly-available polls at BuzzDash.
