Vote for your preferred apps v2.0

good, and glad to see we're able to revisit, as with the limited experience i have on linux yet i could only vote for an image viewer. these lists are a really good way to learn about new apps and encourage you to try them out.

btw, is it also possible to see the results? all i got was an option to return to the survey and that's it?

edit: thanks anonymous!

Edit: Nevermind, looking at your post in the other thread I now understand.

@rhowaldt - I will see about posting results every once in a while. Though I have to first check if Google Docs can consolidate answers or if it will tell me programabc 10 separate times.

@sunfizz98 -  I think I could change the answer myself however it would be hard to tell which answers were yours since I didn't include any identifier question (like name, username, etc) As for allowing multiple answers, I would have had to make it multiple choice and provide answers too. Call me lazy

I wonder if there is a poll/survey kind of thing for google, cause that would certainly be useful.

Just an old habit from the previous thread. Also it sounds better.

@SuNjACk:

^ You can't. If you all really want to see some results, I'll see about posting on Monday (PST).

I found you can view results with this link:
