SodaHead releases Poll Widget 1.0! Export any poll and post it on any site that allows embeds. Add it on your MySpace profile or on your friend's comments. Embed it in your blog or ANYWHERE! In addition to voting, the widget displays the Question, Answers, Images, and Results. It even displays the Profile Image of the SodaHead User who is voting!

We are innovating the Social Voting arena. So, in true SodaHead style, when any vote is cast using a widget by a SodaHead, we include it in their SodaHead Vote History! That means, when SodaHeads vote on your poll embedded on another site, their votes still count!

Just find any poll you like and and copy the HTML code from the Embed field. Paste it wherever you like! Feel free to change the height and width -- for best viewing size, use width="300" height="450". We will soon allow customization of the widget and add some really neat features to it.

We look forward to your comments on the widget since we have lots of plans to further develop it.

• Invite - A lot of users have asked how they can help us introduce the site to their friends, so we've added an Invite link to the menu bar. Simply enter up to 50 of your friends, family and colleagues email addresses. Also, you can always invite people to the site using the "Share Poll" link from a poll page or emailing/IMing the link to the poll.


• Media Center - Now you can add rich media to any poll. Find an interesting video or picture and take a poll to the next level by adding it to the Media Center on any poll page under Trivia.


• New Activity Highlighting - First we gave you a blinking SodaHead to tell you what new activity was happening on your content. Now you can find that content easier. Next time you click on your activity look for bolded text and blue highlights that indicate what activity is new!
  
  Also, you can clear your activity page now by clicking the "Clear" button at the bottom right hand side of the page.


• Raves Safety - No more accidental negative Raves. Now, when you Rave something down, you will be prompted to confirm your selection. So, if you get a negative Rave, you can't dismiss it as an accident!


• Enhanced Search - Now you can search the site for any content and text in polls, blogs and user profiles!


• Pagination - We are working quickly to improve our user interface and changed the style of the page numbers to include text and a bigger click area.


• Category Counts - Ever wonder how many polls are in any given category? Ever find yourself drilling down into categories with no content? Now you can see the number of polls in any given category. The number is displayed in parenthesis to the right of the category.
