Should have been the beginnings continued, but, - Installment 4


Ok, rather than start giving explanations of terms that are associated with the polling industry , I decided to expand on the goals of Rebwithacause (The Pollit Bureau) and to ramble on about a few other things.
When I started this blog, it was my intention to create new posts at a minimum of at least one per week. I put together a listing of about 30+ topics and had a mental idea of how I was going to present the information. This is blog installment #4 , and I can now see that I want to take a little detour from the road I had planned on taking. Rather than clutter this blog up with 100’s of pages of mundane definitions, I have decided to start another blog to explain polls and terms. This new blog endeavor will debut in the next week and there will be a link to it from this blog
    653 Days left. Adsense revenue generated today $00.53. Added several more pages of content to the planned assault. What do the last 18 words and numbers mean? They all have something to do with the goal I had mentioned in an earlier installment. That goal was 2-fold. Give this enterprise called The Pollit Bureau a 3 year chance and to make a million dollars. We are getting closer to the end of the 3 year test, with just 653 days left, however, we are still very far away from the million dollars earned. Still shy by a little over $999,000 dollars. Guess you have to build it right before the proverbial “they” will come. Although some people would consider this endeavor to be a borderline failure at this point, I choose to give it a more optimistic assessment, and consider it just needing that fine tweaking to get to the next level.
Back in June 2009, I had envisioned a company that could gather raw data and not put a spin on it. I wanted there to be no appearance of bias or polls being run with a question related bias because a corporation or entity was paying to have the poll conducted. We made a decision as to not run any polls that we didn’t control and therefore decided to not have any polling clients. How were we going to make our money? We were going to use a combination approach of ad generated revenue streams (mainly Google Adsense at first) and donations. We also decided that we would offer companies a way to advertise on our pages. Additionally, we would market the results of our polls with no analysis to select entities after we had acquired at least 18 months of data.
Now to really ramble. Earlier, this week, I came across a completely useless fact, while searching the internet for some info. That useless fact is= There are 523 golf courses in the state of Georgia. Don’t you agree, that is a pretty useless fact.
Next installment in 5-7 days.
