WC Poll: Social Networking Sites

Monday, June 11, 2007 by Zoomba | Discussion: WinCustomize News

Good morning everyone.  After two weeks, it's time to retire our current poll and toss up something new for you to sink your teeth into.  Previously, we asked you how your browsing habits on WinCustomize change during the summer months, as nice weather and vacations whisper their siren song in your ear, trying to lure you away.  I asked this because we know for a fact that when summer comes around, traffic numbers decrease, but what we don't know is if it's a drop in our return users, the community, or if it's those folks that visit the page once and never return.

Since Microsoft Excel isn't liking me today, no pretty graph, just a chart of percentages:

How Much Time Do You Spend at WinCustomize in the Summer?
Same Amount. 75.15%
A little bit less. 15.76%
A lot less. 3.64%
Hardly at all. 5.45%

In general, it looks like the majority of you (frequent visitors) browse the site as much as you do most of the year, and weather doesn't have much impact on your habits.  It's nice to know I'm not the only one sitting inside looking at the website when it's nice outside 

This week, we'd like to know if you use any social networking sites.  The poll lists a few of the big-names like Facebook and MySpace, but if we didn't list your favorite social networking site, there's always the ambiguous "Other" option.  Just let us know in the comments below which your favorite site is if we failed to list it.

Results next week.

NONE - I'd rather stick a red hot poker in my eye than to give the social networking sites the time of day.

I go (My(CRAP) Space) but only because I can't get my Family to come over here .
Otherwise I cannot stand those places

Other than the community of users (which is why *I'm* here) what features of those "other" sites would you like to see here?

Zubaz apologizes for the hijack Zoomba

Thankfully where I come from social networking still means getting off your arse,leaving the house and wait for it.... meeting other people.   Radical I know but it works for me.
