			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A few weeks back I came across a great site called <a title=\"PollDaddy\" href="http://point2agentblog.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-feed-statistics/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5wb2xsZGFkZHkuY29t" target=\"_blank\">PollDaddy</a> which lets it&#8217;s users create custom polls and surveys with a huge array of options and presentation styles. Needing an excuse to try out this neat tool I whipped up a quick survey to find out which social media sites/services Point2 employees and their friends used on a daily basis.</p>
<p>I anticipated that the results of this survey could be used in the print edition of <a title=\"The Point\" href="http://point2agentblog.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-feed-statistics/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL2FnZW50LnBvaW50Mi5jb20vc3VwcG9ydC8=" target=\"_blank\">The Point</a> which came out this month &#8211; and you may have picked up if you were lucky enough to attend NAR in Orlando last week.</p>
<p>However, as it turns out, we simply had too much awesome content already scheduled to go to print. Which means that I get the pleasure of sharing the results with you &#8211; readers of the blogosphere!</p>
<p>Note: In order to view the results, you need flash!</p>
<div><object width="510" height="385" data="http://www.icharts.net/studio/icharts.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="src" value="http://www.icharts.net/studio/icharts.swf" /><param name="flashvars" value="id=MXvVyg==" /></object></div>
<p>From the results it is clear that <a title=\"Facebook\" href="http://point2agentblog.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-feed-statistics/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5mYWNlYm9vay5jb20=" target=\"_blank\">Facebook</a> is easily the most popular service, and judging by the <a href="http://point2agentblog.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-feed-statistics/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL2libmxpdmUuaW4uY29tL25ld3MvZ3Vlc3Mtd2hpY2gtY291bnRyeS1sZWFkcy1pbi1mYWNlYm9vay11c2FnZS81NTUwOS0xOS5odG1s" target=\"_blank\">commentary</a> I have read, this comes as no surprise since Canada leads Facebook usage globally.</p>
<p>Another result worth mentioning is the surprising popularity of <a title=\"Windows Live Spaces\" href="http://point2agentblog.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-feed-statistics/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL2hvbWUuc2VydmljZXMuc3BhY2VzLmxpdmUuY29tLw==" target=\"_blank\">Windows Live Spaces</a> &#8211; I was under the impression that no one really used this platform outside of an extension for <a href="http://point2agentblog.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-feed-statistics/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL2dldC5saXZlLmNvbS9tZXNzZW5nZXI=" target=\"_blank\">MSN Live Messenger</a> &#8211; but I guess I was wrong. You learn something new every day!</p>
<p>Finally, I was surprised by the adoption of <a href="http://point2agentblog.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-feed-statistics/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5mbGlja3IuY29t" target=\"_blank\">Flickr</a> amongst respondents. Well, actually, let me clarify. It is not surprising that people actually <strong>use</strong> Flickr over competing services (they do have over <a href="http://point2agentblog.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-feed-statistics/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL2Jsb2cuZmxpY2tyLm5ldC9lbi8yMDA4LzExLzAzLzMtYmlsbGlvbi8=" target=\"_blank\">3 billion images</a> for a reason). But rather the fact that when I followed up with them, a surprisingly majority had Flickr Pro accounts &#8211; a paid, premium version of the service.</p>
<p>This signals to me that if you create a focused product, that does one like very well &#8211; like our Point2 Agent product does with syndication &#8211; people are always willing to pay for it. Which of course makes me one happy camper <img src='http://point2agentblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt="icon smile I heart Statistics" class='wp-smiley' title="I heart Statistics" /> </p>
<p>What sites/services do <strong>you</strong> use on a daily basis?</p>
