"Combined Incorporate" is the number of votes for "incorporate" from the eSword list poll, plus the number of votes for"incorporate as a non-profit" and "incorporate as a for-profit" in the e-Sword-users poll.

Due to the low number of votes, the results have no statistical significance, or reliability.

Things I immediately noticed:
* Linux users are a far smaller percentage of respondents at e-Sword-users.org, than at eSword@yahoogroups;
* Mac OSX users are a bigger percentage of respondents at e-Sword-users.org, than at eSword@yahoogroups;
* There are more 32 bit Windows XP users than any other OS;

* I have to wonder how many people specifically selected a mobile device, based on its ability to run Windows Mobile, so that they can use Pocket e-Sword;

e-Sword-users polls: 24 hours later

For some, perhaps most of these polls, it has been less than 24 hours.

Other than Poll 416 --- about mobile device operating systems --- the polls were on the e-sword-users homepage sidebar for between five and thirty minutes.

Poll 416 has been on the sidebar since it was created, which was roughly 18 hours prior to writing this blog post.

Poll 402 has been front and centre of the e-sword-users homepage for roughly eighteen hours, as I write this.

Response to the polls are:
