We've got survey results and a winner!

First of all, thank you to everyone who went to the trouble to fill in our recent survey. Here at Crossref-it.info we really want the resource to help you, so your feedback is very important to us!

One thing that becomes apparent from the survey is how varied the users of the site are. Many of you are students and many of you are teachers, but we also have people who are in higher education, retirees, people from different backgrounds and different parts of the world. In fact, the site has now been accessed from approximately 180 countries!

We were encouraged by some of the things people appreciate about Crossref-it.info:
  • Many students appreciate the frequent revision tips and exam help. The site is being widely used to revise, for coursework, for help with essays and other homework.
  • Many teachers appreciate the 'depth of information', the 'quality of analysis', the 'ease of use' and the 'regularity of updates'. We can't argue with that...
While we are encouraged by all this positive feedback, we did this survey mainly to find out how you think we should improve the site. We got lots of helpful feedback, the most common being that people want to see more material, more text guides.

We are certainly taking that to heart and will keep you posted on the progress we make. We are currently working on various guides, including ones on the poetry of Blake and Rossetti, Chaucer, Hardy's Tess of the d'Urbervilles and Marlowe's Doctor Faustus. Also, we will be announcing a major new feature to the site in the coming months, so watch this space!

And, finally, the winner is: Emma from Nottingham! Congratulations! We are contacting you by email and will arrange delivery for your iPod Shuffle soon.
