SurveyGizmo Surveys on the Blackberry: Who knew!?

Posted by Filed in: Accessible Survey Design, Business & Technology, iPhone

We discovered something totally unexpected this morning while doing a log check. Apparently our efforts towards accessible surveys had an unintended (and beneficial) effect — survey takers are using their Blackberry web browsers to take surveys created in SurveyGizmo! Who knew!

Not being a Blackberry person myself, I didn’t even know this was possible. We have known for months that a growing number of people are using mobile devices (like Treos) to take surveys. But until now, we didn’t even know the Blackberry had a web browser (blush).

We will post more information about how well the surveys work (and look) on the Blackberry as soon as we test them ourselves.

If you have one, try one of your surveys and see how well they work! Post a comment about your experience and any tips we can use to make sure surveys work well on this platform.

As always, we look forward to your feedback!

Update: 9/17/2007

Just a quick update. Having struggled with the cellular carriers to get my number ported I was forced to get a whole new phone (long story). The good news is that I am now a proud owner of a Blackberry 8830! I can confirm that, yes, our surveys work and look darn good on an Blackberry device. I suspect this is largely due to all the accessibility work we have done.
