Many of us often post how we're feeling, wondering if others are experiencing the same emotions -- or situations.
This is something that has intrigued me for a long time, and I've previously tried to use the poll feature here at DU to give ASAHers a place to weigh in, and to see if there is something at least in our micro collective regarding how we're feeling (physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually).
The poll feature here is rather limited, as I feel it's important to address how we are feeling in different ways (physical, emotional, etc.), so I created a setup elsewhere to gauge things, but I didn't get much of a response, so I assumed I was the only one interested in getting a lot of people to respond and track the responses -- simply to be able to see how others are feeling.
I haven't researched it in quite a while, but at least as of a year ago I couldn't find anything similar available; I don't like to reinvent the wheel, so I try to find what I want before creating it myself...lol.
Of course, there's the Global Consciousness Project, but that's different:
http://noosphere.princeton.edu/Here's what I initially created, but if there is an interest, I'd get a better system set up according to what others feel would be of value.
http://www.wishadoo.org/pems-survey-page/Just wondering how others feel about gathering such anonymous data and if it would be helpful -- both in the immediate moment and to reflect upon later on? Every time I see someone post here, or anywhere for that matter, saying how they're feeling and wondering if others feel the same, I think of this and how helpful it could be.
But that's just me. We all know by now that I'm odd.
