Unofficial Instructables Survey Results

Okay, here they are! The results for the instructables survey!

Unfortunately, there was a small response, with only16 people replying.

Anyway, here are some interesting things:
  • 75% of people who replied are in the USA
  • 75% use firefox to access instructables, the rest are equally used
  • Most people use windows XP, followed by Vista and then OSX.

You can download the raw data (CSV) below (There may be a problem opening this with excel, as some of the results appear as dates).

PS: What are your suggestions for making more people reply, and I was thinking, should I do this triannually?

Unfortunately with such a large number of users you're never going to get a big enough sample size. If you could persuade maybe 100 regular users to keep doing this you might get some meaningful results for a very small section of the community. You have seen the official statistics? L
