poll update & music meme...
The awesome response to the poll I posted the day before yesterday (and especially sweetestremedy's review) convinced me that I should do some sort of evaluation of it and present you with it. However, a survey like that doesn't say much when only a couple of people (from more or less the same fandoms) participate. Therefore, I want to ask you if it's at all possible for you to pimp the poll in your journals to attract more people. Pretty please? :D
I think I'll leave the poll open until the end of next week (Sunday, December 12th), and then I'll interpret the results and hopefully write a post about them during the following week.
And before I install Open Office so that I can make notes on your replies, I'll do this meme I pilfered from valdebebas:
Step 1: Put your (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc) on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Strike-out the songs when someone guesses the song and artist correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
