Abstract: Method for automating presentation of data and content is disclosed. According to the method, electronic information to be provided about a poll may be configured, so as to create a configuration. The electronic information may comprise statistics about the poll. The configuration may be conditional based on a parameter or static. The configuration may indicate what electronic information is to be provided in response to a user request for additional information regarding the poll. The configuration may be stored in a content repository. In response to the user request, the electronic information to be provided based on the configuration may be retrieved. The electronic information to be provided based on the configuration may be analyzed. The configuration may further indicate what electronic information is to be analyzed. The electronic information may be provided to the user.

Abstract: Techniques for including and sharing crowd-sourced questions in online polls include a method with the steps of, in response to a client request for content, selecting from a repository of poll questions at least one poll question associated with the requested content and providing to the requesting client the requested content and a poll allowing a user to respond to the at least one selected question; receiving from the client a poll question generated by the user, the poll question including at least a question associated with the content and a plurality of answers responsive to the question; storing the received user-generated question in the repository of poll questions; and, in response to a subsequent request by a different client for the same content, selecting the user-generated question and providing to the different requesting client the requested content and a poll including the user-generated question.

Abstract: Structured comprehensive polls are comprised of question and answer options and are supported by expert opinions and data points (subjective and objective information). Structured polls enable interested parties to conduct social research and obtain and analyze information about public opinion based on informed choices and crowd-sourcing applied to information collection and research based on 2-way communication with the target audience.

Abstract: Multiple questions are selected into a chain of polls. Questions from the chain of polls are served to each identified user via multiple different online venues. Over time, the results of the cumulative responses of particular users that have answered most or all of the questions in the chain are aggregated and correlated to determine overall user response. This method collects data on many questions while avoiding respondent fatigue by serving the questions in small numbers over time.
