I think everyone was waiting for this specially those that host their blog on WP. You can now create polls in WP using Poll Daddy. When you're writing a post, you will see an orange icon on the toolbar for Polls.
If you don't have a Poll Daddy account, you will be prompted to create one the first time you access it.
You can also manage your polls in the Manage section.
And for those that have an account with them you will be able to import your polls.
After this post was published WP is allowing you to add a poll on a sidebar. All you have to do is get the poll link and paste it in a text box. Now you might have to play with the sizing... but PollDaddy does have a custom poll feature that allows you to create your own look and feel and size.
This was a long time waiting and I'm glad WP launched it so kudos for WP.
How do you like the WP poll feature?

Making How To Videos for Free with Jing Project
Posted by Cynthia Medina | 4:27 PM | camtasia studio, creating videos, how to videos, jing project, screen capture application, screencast, snagit | 0 comments »A friend reminded me the other day about Jing Project and I'm glad she did. Some months ago this software was on beta and It was not available to download. Yesterday when my friend reminded me of this I went ahead and download it to try to out.
I don't know how may people use Camtasia Studio or SnagIt but anyways Jing Project is from the makers of these two applications and also of Screencast.com which makes using this new application even better.
When you download Jing Protect you automatically get a free acount with 2GB of storage on Screencast.com which is more than you get if you sign up for a free account on their site.
With Jing Project you can create videos with audio and annotate screen captures. You can post your content on your website, and share through e-mail or IM. The good thing is that everything gets stored in your Screencast.com account. That's not saying you can't store your content in other places because you do have that option.
To share any content, you can click on the History icon that gives you access to all your content thus making it easier to share anything you need to.
Oh but did I mention, it's FREE.
