Omnipilot Offers Free Lasso Quick Poll Solution

Another well-documented pre-built solution to get you started FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - November 21, 2005 - OmniPilot Software, developer of Lasso, introduces a pre-built Quick Poll solution Lasso users can add to their Web sites. Lasso users can add a poll to their Web site including a question, two or more answers, and buttons to cast a vote or see the results so far.

Lasso's Quick Poll solution can increase interaction with visitors to the site without the need for extra coding or software. "Quick Polls provide a fun way to gather insight on specific products sold on your Web site or may provide general feedback on your company's services," said Brett Circe, president of OmniPilot Software. "We have developed an easy to understand Quick Poll solution that our customers can easily use to begin conducting anonymous polls directly on their Web sites."

Quick Polls are designed to get a quick read of the public's opinion on current issues within a short timeframe. When a visitor submits a vote, a result graph will display the outcome to date. The questions and responses are usually displayed for general entertainment purposes and do not reflect statistical data.

The source code for the Quick Poll solution is completely open and can be expanded to suit the needs of the user. The solution is built using CSS and XHTML, requires Lasso Professional 8, and utilizes the built in SQLite database for data storage. Get started today, this solution can be downloaded directly from OmniPilot's Web site www.omnipilot.com/addons. [retired]
