Re: Make Your Voice Heard: Take the Adobe Tech Comm Survey: What You SAY is What You Get

[Tony Chung <tonyc -at- tonychung -dot- ca>]

>From the "Things to watch out for" department, I believe Adobe should post
a landing page at campaignsandevents.com to provide background and add
credibility to the domain. Right now the domain cannot be found.

As a value-added service, the main site could provide links to current
survey campaigns and event appearances, as well as an archive of the survey
results. Too often I take these surveys and I don't see what results it
turned up. It would be nice for Adobe to provide a public version of their
report for use as an engagement tool.
