Ghacks has seen some changes in the last two months with the addition of Jack and his Linux articles and Daniel’s web development series. A question that came up was if those two (or one of them) should be moved to a separate blog.
I still have not come to a decision and I thought it [...]

About Secret Folders and Cleaning
I did ask about your secret folder in last weeks poll and surprisingly the majority declined to have one. 38% of all voters said that they do not have a secret folder for files that only they care about which leads to the question why. Do they live alone and don’t have to hide everything in a folder because there is no girlfriend / boyfriend snooping around ? 23% said that their secret folder was bigger than 10 gigabytes which is huge.
We all hate mondays
I’m glad that I can write this on a friday. Last poll asked about your opinion on the worst day of the week – to no surprise money won that poll with over 50% of all votes. Rather surprising was the second place: Sunday. Not sure why so many people dislike Sunday so much, maybe because many people dislike the fact that you can’t do lots of things on Sundays. Most shops are closed, people tend to stay at home and do not go out to party aso. (as if we would go out and party, we are geeks..)
So you want a forum, huh ?
Almost half of the users (48%) voted yes on the poll that asked if they would like to have a forum at ghacks while 30% said they did not care and 22% decided that they did not want to see a forum here at my site. I will create a forum because the majority decided that way. I would like to ask you what you would like to see in the new forum, which kind of boards for instance
A poll is a poll is a poll
Poll results for “What will you do when Windows Vista comes out” have been analyzed. 60% of all voters said they would do nothing which means they will stick to their old operating system or system. 21% will migrate to Windows Vista, 11% to a *nix system and even 8% to Mac. The big questions is of course, what does vista offer its users that XP does not offer ? Not much from what I can see. It offers some drawbacks on the other hand that I for instance am not willed to tolerate – Trusted Computing anyone ?
This weeks poll, next weeks poll
I was asking if you were interested in ghacks tshirts and might consider buying them and gave you the options of some maximum prices you would pay. Half of the voters are not interested in tshirts at all most of the other voters want them to be as cheap as possible. I’am not sure if I’am going to pursue this idea further, I guess I post some designs soon in an article and let you decide if they would make cool shirts or not.
Polls Polls Polls
I’am still in Prague and have some time left before ma transfer to the airport begins and I decided to create a new poll and analyse the results of the old one. The old poll asked if and which next gen console system you decided to buy when it comes out. 25% of all users will not buy a new system while 22% decided that they would buy a PS3, followed by Wii with 14%, Xbox 360, Xbox 360 + Wii and all of the three with 9%. PS3 + Xbox 360 and PS3 + Wii received 7% respectivly 5% of all votes.
