Poll Results

First, sorry for this poll staying up for a while! I've been busy helping get the next version of the site ready, which is now almost completed.

But we did get some interesting results. Overwhelmingly, you are finding out about MSI from Starbucks.com. Full results below:

Where did you first learn about MyStarbucksIdea?

59%: Starbucks.com
11%: Blog or newspaper article
17%: In a store
6%: From a friend
7%: Other

I am a 11%'er.

I was beginning to think that rather than the question of the day it should be question of the month.

Truly glad that the reason for the inattention was your focus on site improvements.

Site improvements are more important than polls. Truly free wifi is more important than site improvements. Bold all day every day is more important than truly free wifi. All are related to increasing same store sales, profits and stock values. Somewhere on the list is non-dribble paper coffee cups.

Good work.

I was thinking starbucks.com would be the winner. lol

Hey Matt, off topic........V2V is not working today. All I am getting is a blank screen. Would you let Nancy, Anali or one of the other admins know? Please. :-D Hopefully one of them can fix it.

I definitely liked this poll! Matthew it looked like it got a lot of responses! There was a lot of conversation on it which was interesting to read. Nor did I think it was up too long.

I'd love to know how many people in total responded.

And lastly, using a personal tumbler is a great way to have zero drips, save ten-cents, and be good to Mother Nature. (Not that I ever noticed an issue with the lids).

Melody: about 500 total responses. Site traffic has been tremendous recently, and growing steadily. (Happy for that!)

Momiji: I think V2V is working now, I have been follwing Nancy and Anali's road trip and I've been able to access the site. See there road trip here: www.v2v.net/.../road-trippin-with-v2v-aka-nana

brodave: definitely agree that there are more important company priorities than daily polls and new features. But we're a big company with the ablity to work on many things simultaneously. And we are doing so. Some may be announced sooner than others, and some may have been started earlier, so the order of announcement does not necessarily reflect the order of priority

i don't believe the results. many customers surely saw the little tear off notepads in the stores as i did. those who did not tear off to see the mystarbucksidea website on the back nonetheless were made to think of going to the website by this little pad. whether they know it or not, more people than realize it first heard about the website in the store but were too brainwashed to realize it. i on the other hand went to the website because i think i have great ideas. as it turns out, most original ideas are not unique and therefore not original ideas. fortunately, some of mine but surprisingly few. the looking and discussion on the website is very interesting i admit as i have likely logged into this site hundreds of times since its inception (will you tell me the number mguiste?). and so i must be brainwashed or obsessed myself. thanks.
