A quick update. We've been running for 18 hours, enough time to get around the globe.
So far we have 1712 responses. It is probably worth thinking about what we want to do with all the data. I did an analysis of the results so far, and some quick thoughts: 1) The question asking for person's age appears to be useless. Unless we have an unusual number of users in their 70's , 80's and 90's, a large number of users are entering their birth year rather than their age. So I'm planning on just ignoring that field. (This is probably why you often see this done as a drop down list of years in other surveys, less error prone). 2) I will be able to produce a list of logos, sorted by average score and given the % breakdown of 1's, 2's, 3's, etc. Maybe even a histogram chart for each. 3) We're receiving a lot of comments on the individual logos, many more than I expected. So we can expect that for each logo there will be 200 or more text comments. I'm not sure what we want to do with these. Since this is an anonymous survey the users are quite blunt with their comments on the logos they did not prefer, using coarse language, etc., stuff that would be inappropriate if a list subscriber posted. It is not all constructive criticism. Some of it is quite harsh. On the other hand, there is a tremendous amount of valuable feedback as well, that we and the designers specifically might find useful. So what to do? a) Post it all, the good the bad and the ugly? b) Remove or censor only profanity and post the rest? c) Make feedback available only to the individual designers via email d) Publicly post the feedback only for the top 5 logos, share the rest privately with the individual designers. e) Something else? -Rob --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
