We spend a lot of time telling you what we think. It’s time we got to know you better and listened to what you think.
The Crikey Census will help us protect our journalism and deliver more of what you want. And unlike that other national survey, our systems are secure.
Tell us a little about who you are, what you’re interested in and what you really think about Crikey, our products, our people and our journalism. The whole thing shouldn’t take any longer than five minutes. We’d really appreciate it.
We’ll even reward you for your time: a $25 Dendy Direct voucher allows you to stream all the latest movies and premium TV you can binge. Be among the first 500 respondents and it’s all yours.
You don’t even have to tell us your name. No need to boycott.
Questions 9, 10 & 11 (I think) have an underlying assumption that cannot possibly apply to all taking the survey. The only way I can continue the survey is to respond to the questions. No responses provided are appropriate to my circumstances. I cannot complete the survey
Fair points, Ross. We’ve amended these questions now to account for retirees, people not currently working, stay-at-home parents, etc.
I tried to fill in the census but when I filled in ‘Retiree’ it insisted that I fill in information about my current employment. It seems to be flawed. Oh dear!
True, Richard; an oversight on our behalf that we’ve now fixed. Thanks for the feedback.
Didn’t get past the first page – it kept going back to the intro page … must say, am really unimpressed with the site since the upgrade. I am a PollBludger blog fan and can’t get page numbers/avatars/comment numbers/the print sometimes goes off the page & I get kicked off the site regularly and have to log in again.
I do not/am unable to load all sorts of 3rd party apps & plug-ins as they can affect my company’s security.
Not happy Jan!
Jesus, Crikey. You say this:
Tell us a little about who you are, what you’re interested in….
about your “census” and then ask the most intrusive questions that are compulsory to answer.
Fuck off, Crikey, you are worse than the ABS! Just ask us what we think, already, without the data mining.
And I’m with Jenauthor: I’ve had quite a bot of login trouble lately. Also problems with commenting on the site.
Concur with majority of other comments. Ended up abandoning survey. Also connection problems since upgrade changes. Regretfully the site has become too frustrating to navigate and that is saying nothing about bloody distraction from side bar adverts whilst reading. Sorry Crikey, after decade am unlikely to resubscribe.
