<p><a href="http://www.micropoll.com" title="MicroPoll" rel="nofollow ugc">MicroPoll</a> is a service that allows you to gather customer responses to polls on your website.</p>
<p>Normally, JavaScript code has to be inserted on each page where you want micropoll to be used. That approach requires editing of templates and including conditionals based on post ID.</p>
<p>This plugin makes it easy to incorporate the MicroPoll service in your WordPress blog without editing templates by providing a MicroPoll widget that can be used in any widget-ready theme.</p>
<p>Once you have installed MicroPoll, navigate to the configuration page and paste in your poll embed code from the <a href="http://www.micropoll.com/" title="plugin_name" rel="nofollow ugc">MicroPoll web site</a>.</p>
