Idea a day:
96. Other than the bubble index, the same methodology could be used creatively.
The purpose of these index is to show people quantitatively what the general environment/opinions on certain subjects, at which the index could approximately monitor the change of focus.

One example is to develop a salary index (加薪). For people working in private sector, what means could be more effective than showing your boss the salary index to back up your request?

You could say that there are many regular surveys on salary level in different sector, but the survey could only be quarterly or half yearly, in contrast, the salary index could provide you with an instant, use-any-time way of improving your salary.

Other examples could be of:
1. 北上 index, to monitor the willingness and popularity in spending and playing in China
2. 壓力/幸褔/快樂 index, to show how stressful/joyful HK people are now
3. 六四 index, other than monitor weekly change, numbers could be compared with figures in previous years, like 六四事件, we could quantitively get the sense if the fire is still there.

The sky is the limit...

The problem is in the newspaper articles posting section or in the idea a day section?

Jenny,

yaya...It's not Apr now...haha

Ryan,

Yes, there are many opinion voting out there, and it should be effectively reflect the public view if the survey is conducted professionally.

But if considering the authority when comparing newspaper articles and small public votings, which will be more trustful?
