This guy rips into the inability for “the survey software” to allow “don’t know” (or not applicable) as a choice, yet proceeds to go on to make a survey design error himself. LINK
This stresses why it’s important to send a test out to your colleagues before sending the survey outside, to your customers, where you can’t take it back quickly.

If you are a data geek like me, you might just get a kick out of Swivel.com.
Although this is not a survey in a “send it out and have people fill it out” sense, it is a survey of the operating system landscape, where Microsoft counts for over 90% of all usage.

Jason O’grady over at ZDNet did a nice job articulating why iPhone was brilliant to pre-announce their iPhone. You can find the complete list here.
But Jason makes a great point on item #2.
[Apple gets] “Six months of free R&D by a rabid, foaming at the mouth, customer base. I’ve never seen so much press and feature suggestions for a product in my life. Why hire more QA people when you can simply pre-announce something and let the blogosphere do your research for you? (Although it baffles me why Apple hasn’t added a “suggestion” link to their iPhone pages.)”
Great point Jason.
But my question is this: why haven’t more companies adopted a strategic feedback collection tool to pull in opinions, bug fixes, feature requests, and more from their customers or prospects? In this era of group collaboration - where it is believed that external groups provide a critical component of decision making for any organization - it make sense to have a tool to power your feedback collection.

Three-quarters (73%) of the 1,060 UK employees questioned by Chiumento HR consultancy cited good relationships with colleagues as the main reason for enjoying work. Less than half (48%) cited financial rewards.
Only one-quarter of workers said they were “very happy” in their jobs, and one in five described themselves as unhappy.
The Chiumento Happiness Index, published today, also found that employees working for smaller businesses were more likely to be happy than those who work for larger organisations.
Some 86% of employees who work for companies with between 20 and 100 staff feel happy, compared with 78% of those who work in organisations with more than 1,000 staff.
Women were also found to be happier at work than men, with eight in 10 (82%) claiming to be happy in their jobs compared with 78% of men.
