Fan Awards Ballot made available online
Yesterday, Singing News posted their top 10 Fan Awards ballot online. The link might only work for logged-in subscribers.
This move could have long-lasting implications. This could lead to a higher percentage of Singing News subscribers voting, and could also lead to a higher percentage of young readers voting. It could just be my experience, but younger people seem to be more likely to go forward with something if it involves filling out a web form rather than addressing and stamping an envelope.
Of course, long-term, Singing News could save out on a massive amount of printing and tabulation costs if they moved the poll to be web-only. This would almost certainly hurt the Fan Awards strength of more traditional groups like the Inspirations and the McKameys.
