A special thanks to those of you who took yesterday's Poll on your revjim.net reading desires as well as those of you who took my LiveJournal poll regarding content separation from the day before. I don't have much to offer except my thanks and my art. So… THANK YOU. I will be emailing the revjim.net readers and making a locked post for you LJ people in the near future with a coupon code that will allow you to get some prints from my online gallery at cost. It's not a huge savings since they are already dirt cheap, but it's the best I can do right now.
Now to interpret the results.
The vast majority of respondents to the revjim.net poll were LiveJournal users. This means that either most of my revjim.net readers are actually LiveJournal users, or that the non-LiveJournal users are either less vocal, or just don't care.
Additionally, ALL respondents indicated that there were interested in my life. And at least half of them indicated that they were interested in my photography. This means that the majority of my programming minded, technical readers from days of yore have either gone away due to lack of content, or are less vocal, or just don't care.
The remaining respondents that don't use LiveJournal are either VERY special cases and represent a statistical anomaly or they use RSS readers. This formulates the answer to the first question.
The vast majority of the readers that are interested in my personal life are on LiveJournal.
This means I can very easily either move my personal life content directly over to LiveJournal, convert revjim.net to a personal life ONLY type blog, or create another domain entirely to host the writings about my personal life, as long as they can be fed into LiveJournal. Of course I still have to figure out how I want it, but at least it's just a matter of personal taste.
Now, moving on to the LiveJournal poll I learn that everyone wants something different. Only a handful of people responded there but I'm pretty sure I didn't get the same answer twice. So, that allows me to formulate the answer to the second question.
The vast majority of people who read my writing want it in different ways.
This means no matter what I do someone isn't going to like it, so I can basically do whatever I want.
So there you have it. After all that time, effort, thought, and two user polls, I've reached this grand conclusion:
I should do whatever I want.
Man.. I'm a genius.
Expect some changes. I just don't know what yet. Maybe I need to register a new domain… or 10.
