EZ Polls: Not a complete waste of time (really)

EZPolls are a Twitter-based polling system that anyone (eventually) can use. For now, I am the only one who can create an EZPoll, but once I make sure this all works as expected, and add a bit of error handling, I'll open it to everyone. Read more about EZPoll here.

Q 2: Should those who work with computers (nerds) avoid talking about science fiction in public?

About

Aron's Head in Death Valley

I'm Aron Pilhofer and this here is my website. And by website, I really do mean mine.

I wrote it from scratch in Ruby on Rails. I did most of the CSS, so if it's not semantic and standards-based, now you know why. I started with a lovely two-column layout from Matthew James Taylor and went from there.

I also work for The New York Times. If you want more of a bio, check my Linkedin profile or find me on Twitter. You can contact me directly at: aron [at] nytimes [dot] com
