Right. Now take the survey under the fold. But only if your intuitions are untainted by first viewing the image at J&B. (We want to be scientistic about this.)

Reader survey
It’s been a while since we’ve had a survey around here. This one is on what sites and services you know about and use. It should take no more than 2.5 minutes (two and a half, NOT 25!). I’ll report back with results and why I am interested in this in a few days.
Take the survey. Thanks!
UPDATE 1/31/06: The survey is now closed. Thanks to those who participated. I will be posting results soon.
This post is a follow-up to another from a few days ago.
First, the bullet-point version of this post:
- A one-question survey has very limited utility
- Most respondents have tweaked their default homepage
- Several types of default pages are popular with respondents
- We cannot generalize findings from one blog’s readership to another
- When trying to learn about people’s Web uses, it can be very helpful and interesting to ask them for details
Second, thanks to the 784 of you who took the survey! Read on for more.
Please fill out this survey consisting of just one question.
Here is the question: What site first comes up when you launch your browser?
I’ll say more later today. At that point I’ll also open comments. Thanks!
UPDATE (9/3/05 10:45pm CST): Due to the number of “Other” responses and associated emailsI have received, it will take me a bit longer to tabulate the results than I had anticipated. I will be posting a follow-up note to this survey sometime this weekend. Thanks to the 660 people who have already taken it. The survey will remain open for up to 240 more respondents.
UPDATE (9/5/05 11:40am CST): I have now closed the survey. Thanks to the 784 people who participated. Stay tuned for a summary and discussion of responses.
