I have mentioned many times about the fact twitter is a great research tool. It is a great question and answer tool too. I get some of my best input from twitter when I simply ask a question of those who are following me.

Recently, I took the research and question and answer technique a step further on twitter. By using a great new tool called twtpoll, I posted a twitter poll to twitter and asked for some input. It was wonderful and I received a large number of responses to the poll. However, what was even better, I got some results that really helped with making a decision.

The ability to do a quick poll on twitter is just one more example of the power it has. For a business, doing a twtpoll would be a great method for getting some instant input on a new idea, product or service. Give it a try.
