Feedback Results: Is this your first time here or are you a regular reader?

/

I asked this question in my trial run of a feedback widget in my sidebar. 

Guess what? I received 21 responses to the question. Because that's more than the number of comments I've received on any given blog post or combination of posts, I'm a bit psyched!

Welcome first time readers, much appreciation to regular readers, and thank you to everyone who visits, reads, and subscribes to the blog; it really would not be any fun to do this alone. I couldn't - or wouldn't - be able to do this without you. You are awesome!

Now, back to business. The feedback I received was completely anonymous and the responses I received are copied below. With a simple click of an "export" button, the results are entered into an Excel spreadsheet. Even someone #notsotechy can handle that!

Note: I deleted the names entered in the interest of privacy so if you entered your name and don't see it, that's why.  

A mixture of regular and first time readers answered the question. I like that. I don't like that I have first time readers and don't know who they are. People answer the questions you ask so be sure that you ask the questions to get you the information you are seeking - lesson learned! 

I get that the anonymity of the widget may have encouraged more responses, so, for those interested, you have an open invitation to connect with me. You can check out the Connect with Lisa section on the sidebar and connect via email, on LinkedIn, or on Twitter or simply leave a note in the comment section.

I'll keep this question up through the weekend and post a new question early next week. Thanks for playing along and be sure to some back soon!
