Poll everywhere analysis

 What is Poll everywhere?
Poll everywhere is the fastest way to create real-time experiences for events using a mobile,
it lets you use standard web technology. It's the easiest way to gather live responses in any venue: conferences, presentations, classrooms, radio, TV, print — anywhere. Because it works with texting, web, or Twitter, its simplicity and flexibility it makes it that much easier to use.

How do you use it?
People have come up with many creative ways to use Poll Everywhere, examples of these are
Audience choice awardsTexting questions to expert panels
Replace expensive clickersGreen surveys at conferences
Moderated TXT-to-screen graffitiText feedback to a presenter
Interactive signageAutomated attendance tracking
Anonymous polls for sensitive topicsBrainstorming with 2000 people
Market researchSilent SMS auctions
Training comprehension checksOutdoor SMS voting
Grading in-class quizzesPolitical elections

The teacher placed on the board a question of her own that we had to answer, this question was about the film SE7EN, and we had to then text in to answer it. Overall I think poll everywhere is a good way to get a world wide opinion on something you need to know, I can't think of a way to get a question out better. What I think makes it better is the fact it can be linked to social networking sites like Twitter is an incredibly popular worldwide networking site. So giving you an even bigger range of people to answer the question that you want.
