Rest of the Mac Web Survey

Rest of the Mac Web Survey

The Rest of the Mac Web (ROTMW) survey covers 41 independent Mac Web sites not included in the recently completed Best of the Mac Web (BOTMW) survey. Many of these were nominated by those who wondered why they weren't included on the first survey. Some were simply overlooked in the BOTMW survey.

This creates a very diverse list of sites - and it's still far from exhaustive. There are probably another 100 or more independent Mac-related sites out there.

One reason for this survey is to determine which sites should be added to the Spring 2002 Best of the Mac Web survey.

Voting will take place from November 29 through December 9. We'll compile the results on Monday, December 10, and plan to publish them on Tuesday, December 11.

We attempted to contact the publisher or webmaster of the sites listed and give them the opportunity to add a link to the survey and have the opinions of their visitors counted. However, it's hard to find an email contact for some sites, so we may not be able to contact every site.

We encourage publishers to link to the survey specifically so we can poll a broad cross-section of Mac Web visitors. With enough sites sending their visitors, that keeps results from getting spiked by a strong push from a single site.

To some extent, this can't help but be a popularity contest. In fact, that is one of two things we hoped to learn - how well known various sites are. The other is what you, the reader, think of these sites. This is an opinion poll, not a scientific survey.

Because the survey asks visitors to only rate websites they are familiar with, the Rest of the Mac Web survey measures two things: how well known a site is and what those who know the site think of it. Click here to participate in the survey.

BTW, you can go back and take the survey a second time. This will replace your first ballot.
