Welcome to the second Best of the Mac Web survey. This twice-a-year
survey gives you the opportunity to rate the sites you're familiar
with - 56 of them this time around.
The second survey includes almost all sites from the first one,
although The Mac Junkie has fallen by the wayside and MacInstruct
is currently on hiatus. We've also removed ramseeker, since it
doesn't publish or link to editorial content. We've also added
several newer sites and are including the rumor sites this time
around. Note that this survey is not comprehensive - we've probably
left out a lot more sites than we've listed, but we wanted to keep
the number of sites listed reasonable.
One change from the last time around: We're providing links to
each of the sites up front so you can visit them. However, we ask
that you only rate sites you were familiar with before coming to
the survey. If any of the "new to you" sites become personal
favorites, you'll have the opportunity to rate them next time
around.
We've attempted to contact the publisher or webmaster of each
site listed, giving them the opportunity to add a link to the
survey and have the opinions of their visitors counted. We do this
to try to minimize bias by allowing every site in the survey to
link to it.
To some extent, this can't help but be a popularity contest.
This is an opinion survey, but I believe it will accurately reflect
what regular Mac Web surfers think of the listed sites.
Here are the surveyed sites (the link will open into a new
window, making it easy to come back here or to look at the site
while taking the survey).
BTW, you can go back and take the survey a second time. This
will replace your first ballot.
We'll be collecting your feedback through Thursday, November 22,
2001 (Thanksgiving Day here in the States). I'll spend some time
that weekend analyzing the results and hope to publish our findings
on Monday, November 26.
