As you must’ve known by now, here at HackerNoon, we are constantly working on making the site not only just a publishing website but also a community where each and everyone can discuss and make meaningful interactions with each other.
From ==Slogging== to ==Emojis reactions== to the ==Comments feature==; each product, in its own way, has allowed HackerNoon people to freely express their opinions. Not to mention our own custom voting software as you may (or may not) have seen with the Noonies, which harness the power of the community, and we are doing more to contribute towards that goal.
Introducing - HackerNoon polls!
Ever since George Gallup standardized what is widely known as the “modern opinion poll” in 1932, the application of polls has become prominent especially in portraying a population's ideas by asking a series of questions, visualizing the generalities in ratio (within the provided options).
From the most serious to the absolute trivia questions
The new weekly HackerNoon poll will surely add some spice to your browsing experience and (maybe) spark some good discussions within our evergreen community!
