I started experimenting with PollDaddy polls over at This Mommy Gig (psssst - you can win a Starbucks gift card there, go check it out!) and LOVE the ability to embed the polls pretty much anywhere.
PollDaddy even has a WordPress plugin and I absolutely adore plugins - I collect them like treasures! This one allows you to simply enter a short poll number into your posts rather than a huge piece of HTML. The plugin can be found within PollDaddy when you create a poll. There are many different “skins” for your polls, but I found that I like the basic ones best, as the more elaborate ones tend to make the text difficult to read.
I created a poll and emebedded it here to show you the tool, but also truly would like your input - are you blogging less now that it’s summer? Take the poll and let me know! I mentioned on Twitter that I feel like I’m slacking (wait, do my multiple articles each day on SwimNetwork count as blogging?) and everyone reassured me that NO ONE is blogging as much now that it’s gorgeous outside and we’re out of hibernation.
Weigh in, please! Make me feel better about my less-than-prolific writing recently……….

Hi Kate,
No summer here I’m afraid. It’s winter in the Southern Hemisphere and the wind is blowing a gale and raining horizontally; heaters all going full blast and it’s getting dark really early :)
Do I normally blog less during summer? No, don’t think so. I’m fairly steady throughout the year as my key blogging times are in the early morning and late at night (when the kids aren’t awake). Once they’re awake all bets are off LOL
Cheers,
Mike

For some reason, I always get more writing done in the summer. Go figure. Maybe it’s my biorhythms or something. Thanks for the intro to PollDaddy. Never heard of it until now.
