Lindal Kidd Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 In typical LL fashion, they posted an invitation to participate in a poll, and locked the thread so as to get zero responses.But here's mine anyway!I don't use social networks (aside from SL itself). I don't like them, don't believe in them, and think they probably come from Satan. By necessity, I have a FaceBook account and a LinkedIn account, but I seldom log in to either one and pay as little attention to them as possible.I do have a blog, and I enjoy getting comments from readers.

Irene Muni Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 That poll is announced in the General Discussion forum. Why not in a blog entry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindal Kidd Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 Now there are TWO forum posts from LL, neither of which can be replied to. What is this, a dDoS attack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tari Landar Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 lol, they just know the kind of responses they're going to get. That said, I don't use social media to connect with SL members, either. I have a facebook, rarely use it. I sometimes use it to sign up for free junk on facebook I think I *might have maybe 5 friends, maybe not even that many anymore, don't know. I don't use any of the other sites though.

Of course not. How could a thread started by Linden Lab be locked unless it's the mods here? When you see a word highlighted in green someone changed the url into a GREEN word, such as 'click here' or just 'here'. ETA: Oh duh Lindal, you have a highlighted green link in your signature.

Perrie Juran Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 So far I see it at top of GD only. And they left "none" out as a choice so I just entered that under 'other' And they left their own stuff out. Silly SL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindal Kidd Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 Oh, duh! The word "here" is a LINK! I thought they meant HERE here, not THERE here! Color me blonde.

Strawberry blonde at a push, really you're a ginger! how odd though to ask the question and then not enable discussion, the complete opposite of social networking! I use twitter, flickr, facebook with pages, not with a profile and I'm not touching Google + with a bargepole until they allow people to post pages like Facebook do, without a personal profile.

I have 3 Facebook accounts tied to 3 different email accounts (1 is my main SL Alt account) ...the other 2 are totally plucked out of the air.

Ceera Murakami Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I responded with "NONE OF THESE AT ALL - I do not use this type of service for SL or RL." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perrie Juran Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Really the poll is vague. "1. What social networks, sites or apps do you use to share your Second Life activities with others? (check all that apply)" Others? Other residents? Or others who are not yet involved in SL? Or all of the above. My guess would be they are looking for where we share our SL experience with people who are not yet involved. But I could be very wrong. In other words, where/how can we better promote SL. Maybe the question is meant to be vague. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Deakins Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 LL wants the information to help them. That's an overwhelming reason for me not to do the poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickey Vandeverre Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Good Grief. Do they have anyone left in the marketing department at all??? All they have to do is to type in some keywords to check. keyword phrase #1 - Second Life - type that into google search, Linden Lab keyword #secondlife - type that into twitter keyword phrase - Second Life - type that into wordpress etc,, ............... now, LL....after you have completed tasks #1, 2, and 3.... let's get crazy with keywords. venture out a bit. perhaps...."Second Life Fashion" perhaps "Second Life Blog"....perhaps "Second Life Builder" holy cow.

Porky Gorky Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Oh, I really don't think it's a good idea to let the Lindens anwhere near google with their track record of search engines. They will likely break the whole interwebz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, any good pollster knows you can influence the out come of a poll by the questions you ask. And perhaps by asking it here they are looking for the results in a specific target group. But your assessment is probably the most logical one. Lets do a poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
