60% of you access jkOnTheRun via mobile devices
Our recent poll to capture a feel for how you access jkOnTheRun is now closed with almost 1,000 responses. While it may not be surprising for a mobile tech blog, fully 60% of respondents use a mobile method for accessing the site most often.

Considering the relatively short time that netbooks have been in use, their ranking in your poll speaks volumes as to their emerging importance in the information highway.

I think the poll – though useful – was a little misleading.
I suspect that like me most of your readers, being IT savvy, would access your site from many different browsers. For instance I am now on my work desktop computer. I also use my laptop, Tablet and my iPhone but answered desktop since I probably use it about 50% of the time.
A possibly more useful poll would be to quantify the proportion of time each device is used to access your site.
