I think the tech should get some type of voting system. It would be cool for when Logan asks a question at the end of a video to take a vote anybody could watch. Also users could post their own votes.
@wendell
Could you ellaborate on this or give us an example of the scenario that you are talking about? Also change "tech" to "tek" :P
You mean like straw polls during the wan show?
I'd assume that this is - "so what do you guys think? Let us know in the comments"
A poll would really limit the responses. The latest Tek, for example, had Logan asking for ideas on what to name the NAS.
Logan and Wendell only tend to do live-streams when they are horribly late recording or even editing TEK episodes. we've seen this many times before. As simple as it may seem to do a live-stream. there are always much more problems Live streaming an episode as apposed to pre-recording an episode prior and releasing it later on. Of course there are bound to be mistakes when talking about articles, sources or whatever and internet issues.. in fact it's happened before. I would love the TEK to be much more interactive, but i'm not sure if Logan or Wendell would be up to it.
A good example might be when the guys were asking what we thought about the Apple thing, how they were pressuring Asian companies. They could put a vote up and see if people like Apple not not, might be obvious the results but that is an example. They could also take a vote to see if people think the solar roads are practical.
Perhaps these polls could be added to the companion discussion topics that get linked here on the forums?
That’s what I was thinking as well, for example if I posted computer science vs computer engineering vs software engineering I could insert a module of HTML via command button and create a poll.
