Lunchtime Poll
June 6, 2011 8:21 AM Subscribe
I want to be able to poll audience members via text message during a live event. What programs/apps/websites should I check out?
Ideally, this is how it would work -- I ask the audience to vote between choice A and choice B by sending a text message to a provided phone number. Their votes are sorted or tabulated or whatever, preferably resulting in some sort of infographic -- a bar graph for example.
The goal is to avoid needing an actual person on hand to receive and tabulate the votes as they come in.
Anyhow, does such a tool exist?

We have been testing out Poll Everywhere in our school and I think it would be just the ticket for you.
