Yes, maybe, in the same way I would browse for random stuff on other places out of pure boredom, there are some interesting polls. But the site is too slow, it takes ~5sec to load, on my desktop, and the scrolling isn't smooth. Loading 50 jQuery libraries in the header plus some other 30 libraries in the footer don't help, it's killing the site... You need to concatenate and minify all that code, same with the CSS. And do some profiling. Ebay, arguably one of the biggest sites on the internet runs on ~80mb but your site uses up 130mb; you might have a memory leak.
To be honest, I just spent a few minutes on it but it is not a site I would keep coming back to. There's no real value add, it is all the same content and has no draw to it. You need to read up on gamification, the art of rewarding people to draw them in and keep them coming like.<p>Foursquare has badges
Hacker News has karma
Reddit also has karma<p>Give people points, badges, etc for using the site and sticking around. Reward interaction and time spent and you'll find people will come back.
I wouldn't. I'm really not interested in the general public's opinion. And even if I was, I wouldn't think to go to a "database of polls" to find it.
I spent more time on the site than I anticipated. Why? Because some of the polls were interesting, and other polls (the questions) revealed news I hadn't heard of yet.<p>So yes, I would revisit again and again, provided the quality of news and questions was high.<p>My advice is to stay away from the lowbrow, lowest common denominator stuff. Be intelligent,informative and interesting.<p>Nice work btw!
The site loads slowly, and the category text is very hard to read. Here's a screenshot from my browser (Firefox 28 on Windows 7) <a href="http://i.imgur.com/BP7SZl6.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/BP7SZl6.png</a><p>Also I don't think I'm really in the target audience. It's just taking polls? I don't see what I'd gain from it.
Nah. It's neat, but there's no reason for me to go back to it: I just can't imagine ever saying to myself, "You know how I'd like to spend my time? Seeing how people on the internet have answered a random assortment of polls." If I want to know how the general public feels about a specific issue, I'll just google it.
I think that there are some polls that I would be interested in seeing the public opinion of. Most of the things on the site now I wasn't interested in though.<p>Also, check out <a href="http://platformed.info/" rel="nofollow">http://platformed.info/</a>.
The world's largest database of opinions is called the internet. If you can make anyone's opinion valuable then you are on to something. Tldr no.
