Online polling website Buzzdash has had to shut its doors due to a lack of funding. I received this email this morning.

Dear rockresearch,

We’re very sad to say that, due to lack of funding, BuzzDash will be winding down in 7 days.

We truly appreciate everyone’s involvement in creating a national forum where people can gauge and share opinions on everything. Over our two and a half year history, you’ve done just that, and we’re proud to have been a part of it.

From the entire BuzzDash team, thank you, and all the best!

Buzzdash faced stiff competition from PollDaddy whcih is owned by Automattic (who also own blogging platform WordPress ). PollDaddy is available as a WordPress plugin and it seems that this advantage may have sealed Buzzdash’s fate.
