Twitter polls launched



Now everyone can create polls on Twitter in just a few taps, people can weigh in on all the topics they care about.


It is now easy to get the public’s opinion on anything – what to name your car, which issue when it comes to elections, people care about the most – there is no better place to get real time answers than on Twitter. For poll creators, it’s a new way to engage with Twitter’s massive audience and understand exactly what people think. For those participating, it’s a very easy way to make your voice heard.
Previously, Twitter has offered a few ways to participate in polls — Tweeting questions and tracking replies, tallying hashtag votes, or asking followers to favorite or Retweet to vote. Now, you’ll be able to create your own two-choice poll right from the compose box and it will remain live for 24 hours. You can vote on any poll, and how you voted is not shared publicly.
Over the next few days, Twitter will be rolling out the ability to create polls on iOS, Android, and on desktop at twitter.com. Once you see the poll icon shown above in the compose box, give it a try and create your own poll!
