Pollection Team Blog

We are launching our product on Facebook platform tonight. Our application, Polls, is an F8 application that lives natively inside the Facebook universe. Polls application allows you to create your own multimedia polls for free. You can then place the poll on your profile, invite friends to vote, and monitor the results. It allows you to use images, videos, or sounds in the poll. Here are some of the features we are launching tonight

• Create Rich Polls: Your polls can include movie clips, images, or even songs. Simply upload your media files during poll creation and that’s it. We take care of everything else. You can use these media files for the poll question itself or for any of the answer choices.
• Share with Friends: Once you have created your poll (or if you come across a cool one by someone else) you can easily share it with friends or post it to your profile. Like any other content in Facebook, click on the share button and spread the joy.
• Comment on Polls: Click on the comments button and we take you to the poll page where you can also leave comments for the poll just like you would write on somebody’s wall.
• Friends’ Opinions: See what polls your friends are interested in. Click on the Polls link in the Applications menu (upper left hand side) and we show you the recently created polls by your friends and also which polls they have been voting on.
• Invite Voters: If you want a friend to definitely vote on your poll simply go to the poll page, enter their name in the invite box on the upper right section of the page and click Vote. A notification (similar to a new friend notification) will show up the next time they login to Facebook which takes them to the poll for their vote.
• Promote your Poll: When you create a poll, it is automatically added to your profile. This way, visitors to your profile will see the poll and can vote on it right on your profile. You can even do more by sharing the poll from your profile.
• Keep in Touch: And of course we publish your actions to the news feed so your friends know what you are up to. If you create a poll or vote on a poll, a story is published to your mini-feed. For example

So, what are you waiting for? If you are a Facebook user click here to get our application. You can read more about it here. If you have any suggestions or comments, don’t hesitate to email us or leave us a message here. We hope that you enjoy our application.
