“Poll Dancing” Revisited

With most of the “blogosphere” abuzz about CES I thought I’d
post about anything but…

 

The holidays kept me from following up on this but I do want
to share results of the first ever RemainComm reader poll. I asked
the very basic of questions as it pertains to this blog. “When you can’t talk
to someone face to face, what device do you use most to communicate with them?”
Here’s how it broke out:

Phone (land
line)……………………12.5%

    Cell phone
(voice)……………………37.5%

    E-mail……………………………….25%

    Text…………………………………12.5%

    Mail………………………………….zilch.

    Web Applications
(Twitter, etc.)…….12.5%

No real surprises I guess. Between text and cell it looks as
though you are a mobile bunch. In addition, if you’re in the “old world” communication
business you may want to rethink that gig as the next “Wichita Lineman” or pent
up loner at the post office.

Okay, so our ‘far from scientific” poll points out that Cliff
can spend more time on the bar stool at Cheers. Might this also present an
opportunity the next time you want to get someone’s attention? Next time you
fire off an e-mail to make a pitch or submit a resume; consider sending a
letter as well. Imagine the delight of someone who sees an actual letter in
their dwindling pile of direct mail ads and bills that is their daily delivery.
You never know, you might be the only one who does it.

There’s a new poll posted so…have at it!
