I was just thinking the other day that one thing I miss from LJ/DW Days of Yore were all the silly polls people used to put up. They were fun and (very occasionally) revealing of how people differ from each other.

I'm going to make an effort to do at least a Silly Poll of the Month if not a silly poll of the fortnight on my journal and see how many silly people respond.

Good idea!

Folks love 'em.

I'm all for people posting on DW and blogs, but if Automattic would invest in the web, instead of "This looks sooooo much better in our app, which exists at the whim of Apple" ... argh.

Yeah -- we're Internet olds, aren't we?
