SURVEY MONKEY BALLOT
Vote (latest link) on the book title for the first meeting of 2010.

NOTE: SurveyMonkey changed the link to our ballot, but the link above has seemed to work consistently.

Please vote—the poll closes TODAY, December 3, 2009. I’ll send out the results Dec. 7, along with a link to the sign-up sheet. It's a short time span for voting, but it means you can put the books on your Christmas list.

CURRENT RESULTS
As of Dec. 2, one book has the highest ratings (13 voters), and one will be eliminated from future votes. The relative ratings for many of the books have changed as more people have voted, but the same books have the highest and lowest scores. So it looks like we have a fairly diverse set of interests in those of you who are voting.

QUICK CONTEST
Send me an email correctly guessing the titles with the highest and lowest scores and you’ll receive a surprise! Will the relative scores be the same at the end? Your guess is as good as mine. Guess at any time, on as many titles and positions as you like.

BOOK TITLES
If you're price-conscious, Amazon has a sale on most of these titles (up to 50% off) AND some have Kindle editions (cheap and convenient).

NOTE: The links include a code for the UUX SIG—purchase a book using our link and the SIG receives a few cents.
