Thanks to everyone who has participated in the polls so far.
The latest poll, was whether you should answer questions on Stackoverflow.com (or other developer related StackExchange sites) on your employer’s time?

Here are all the other polls done on Twitter so far. This is a new feature on Twitter so if you aren’t running a new version, you will have just seen my question without the poll on it. I think Twitter is great for surveying opinions anonymously (I don’t know who has voted). Due to the 140 character limit, its not so great for lengthy explanations. If you have an opinion on any of these polls that you’d like to share, please add a comment below.
