Polls can now have a policy on how votes will be tabulated

Up until now, only members on the site could vote in a poll. Now, each poll can have one of three policies:

1. **None**: anybody can vote any number of times. This is the default case
2. **Once per Session**: Anybody can vote, but only one time per session. This should cut down on people stuffing the ballot box.
3. **Members Only**: Only members of the site can participate in the poll (but anyon can view the results).

In most cases, this will allow anyone to participate in a poll (and should lead to some interesting results). Enjoy!

It comes down to philosophy…

This is an excellent article that covers my feelings about the books very well. Although the Harry Potter books are wonderful and fun, there’s very little depth behind the stories (which is fine for young readers, and older readers looking for an escape). But the depth in The Lord of the Rings, and the moral complexities that it tackles make it a work for the ages.

Form handling has been much improved.

Up until now, if you filled out a form with illegal values, the submit just failed. Now, there’s feedback as to what’s wrong, and you get another chance at filling out the form.

And they all look good!
