Polls made in polldaddy.com can be embedded in the forum. You'll need to sign up for an account there first.

Follow the instructions to make a poll. Choose the questions you want, expiry date, design etc, then save it.

Once you're done, find the Embed & Link option and grab some code. You can then post this into a message and it'll appear automatically.

Please note that all you need is a direct link to the poll. Polldaddy sometimes gives abbreviated links that may not work. So, instead of adding (which is given if you choose the Direct Link code), you need the fuller version, eg http://polldaddy .com/poll/5014000/ (you get the second link by loading the first one in a new browser tab/window). Alternatively, at the time of writing this, the Posterous embed option gives the full URL that you need, so try that.

Please don't overuse these. Conversations are always more interesting than a yes/no vote.

Voting ‘no’ to say I don’t like voting, just because I can.a-hard-days-night-george-10

Ad hoc, ad loc, and quid pro quo! So little time! So much to know!

I don’t like it. Sorry, but I don’t, and my vote reflected it. I think part of the best things about this are the waiting periods afte you pose a theory.

Voting “no” because it will cost a squillion pounds to vote “yes”.

I told her I didn’t

Cool…just another form of communication for us to enjoy, as long as it's not abused.

Did the forum used to have built in polls, or is that some de ja vu fever dream my mind created after seeing this thread?
