Create a poll for LinkedIn

[mxajPrice]

Overview

We need to create a poll question to see who is interested in Open Source Data.

Action Items

• Brainstorm at least 5 questions we can ask that we feel will engage LinkedIn users
• Review questions with team and vote on three best questions
• test questions with poll on Slack to General channel
• take most successful question, prep LinkedIn post, get approval from Bonnie
• Ask Bonnie to post
• Leave post up for a week, and move on to next steps

Next steps:

• create a template message to send to users who answered polls
• reach out to people who answered the poll
• collect and analyze information from their profiles

@hannahsgr Please add update using this template (even if you have a pull request)

Progress: "What is the current status of your project? What have you completed and what is left to do?"
Blockers: "Difficulties or errors encountered."
Availability: "How much time will you have this week to work on this issue?"
ETA: "When do you expect this issue to be completed?"
Pictures: "Add any pictures of the visual changes made to the site so far."

If you need help, be sure to either:

1. ask for help at your next meeting
2. put a "Status: Help Wanted" label on your issue and pull request
3. put up a request for assistance on the #access-the-data channel.

Also, after reviewing current poll results, I will be modifying one option to make it more consistent with the rest.

What statement best describes your relationship with open-source data?
I love open-source data! I use it regularly
I’m somewhat familiar with open-source data
I don’t use open source data
I don’t use open-source data, but I would like to

The second option asks about familiarity with open-access data while the other options ask about usage. To make it more consistent and the options mutually exclusive (it is possible to be familiar with open-access data and have never used it) - I'll be changing the second option to - I have some experience using open-access data.
