PollEverywhere.com - Live Audience Polling With A Twist

I ran across this rightly named PollEverywhere.com website while reading TechCrunch today and I have to say I was more then impressed.

PollEverywhere.com provides live audience polling with a twist - the audience participates in polls via SMS and live results are displayed via Powerpoint or your browser.

If you ever attended seminars or lectures with a large audience you will know what a pain it is to try and get any sort of feedback from the audience - I am sure organizers of such events feel the pain the most if they have to fork out the cash for devices that allow user interaction …

Well, this is all a thing of the past as PollEverywhere completely simplifies this problem and makes it a non-issue. Organizers of an event simply pick a plan at PollEverywhere and get a set of SMS numbers for their votes to be cast to and that’s it. When their event starts it’s just a matter of telling their audience what numbers to SMS and they can start voting.

I love it when technology provides us with innovative solutions to everyday problems - don’t you? A good choice of domain name too!
