I've been taking surveys of the readership of this weblog since 2004. Here is my last one, from the summer of 2010. Before I moved to Discover I also did one in the winter of 2010. Here's a reader survey from the winter of 2009. Another from 2005. I set up a survey with a new service this time. I did integrate some of the suggestions of commenters as well. One difference between this survey and previous ones is that I have a lot more free-form text boxes with numeric answers. So you give your specific age or income, instead of selecting from a category. The survey shouldn't take more than ~5 minutes, as many of the questions are yes/no, or very simple, such as your highest education attained. I'll post the first results within 24 hours, and probably post the raw files at some point in the near future ...
