Hi!

I’m glad I browsed through the noFollow list of nic’s blog, otherwise, I wouldn’t have stumbled into this blog. Me, Bong, and my better half, Jennie, are newbie bloggers. Great blog and we’ve subscribed to get the latest. Thanks.

Just filled out your survey. I am new to your site so my answers may not be that helpful. I am the political consultant/wahm.

[...] works! I decided since the site had new insides, it was time for a new header too. One responder to my survey said they were a little tired of the gumdrops- see how I’m responding to your input already? [...]

I’ve just did the survey. I think actually majority people will not do a long survey. Anyway I’m a blogger. I just blog for my life record.

@Vivien – good points all. I wish I had set it up differently with longer text areas. Unfortunately, there is not an option to edit the type of fields now that the survey is running, and I’d need to start over, so I think for this one I added a comment in the post and in the survey.
I didn’t ask for links because I wanted people to feel free to say whatever they wanted.

Hi Randa. I just filled out the survey form. Had to do it twice (by clearing out the cookies in my browser), because the first time it submitted the form when I pressed Enter to type a new line. Why don’t you use a textarea field instead of the tall input field that’s getting confused as a textarea? This way people can press enter to type a long answer on multiple lines. Also, you should consider having a wrapping text in your textareas in the survey.
Also, was wondering how come you’re not asking your readers to provide links to their websites/blogs?
Great idea to get to know your readers better. I should come up with smth similar on my blog.

P.S. Now I see why David’s comment is showing up with my avatar looked so weird when I first saw it here.

I’m a part-time website builder in the UK, holding down a full-time eCommerce marketing job. I’m not a designer as my website will attest, so look to sites like this for design guidance and inspiration.

Heh! So far looks like I am in the company of other humans; no aliens commenting here yet!

I just filled out the survey! In short, I am not a full-time blogger, and usually only blog about food and places around the world (since I usually travel quite a bit). I live in Pune, India. Cheers!
