While this website is useful, it's certainly very limited in its footprint and impact. We could easily and quickly gain a clear picture of what the city and its residents view as the most important issues - and what residents view as the solutions to those issues, by conducting a mobile poll to all the cell phones in Tuscaloosa County. I'm proud to say that I work with a company that has conducted such services around the world (in conjunction with the US State Dept, the World Bank, the UN, etc...) It's quick, easy, and all inclusive - I definitely encourage everyone to take a took, (plus such polls are a TON cheaper and quicker than alternatives)...
