Urtak in The Walrus
Back in September, Aaron Gibralter and I were interviewed for an article about Urtak and the future of online polling to be published in The Walrus. The Walrus is a highly respected Canadian monthly, and we were certainly pleased to be featured in it.
In “The People’s Poll,” the author Leigh Kamping-Carder has done a really nice job summarizing the nature of the polling world and the challenges it is currently facing. She also says some nice things about Urtak.
The talks we had with Leigh took place before we had rolled out the embeddable widget, so we weren’t able to talk about the success that feature has had, or its potential to transform the online polling space. Next time.
And a final note to the reader. At Urtak, we certainly appreciate irony, but if there is one thing we are deadly serious about, it’s facial hair.
