I've also added a 'Feedback' capability (blue tab on right frame edge) that is helpful, but the 4Q user satisfaction surveys help me understand what visitors are trying to do. I used the 4Q surveys at work for a while and it did help uncover some (now) obvious opportunities. @Jason — Actually I do like the surveys.

I think it depends on how obtrusive the request for information is. I'm not a fan of telephone surveys, as they always interrupt what I'm doing, and take time to complete. Web surveys that first ask if you can be surveyed, then are short, and finally happen after you've completed your task on the site are always welcome to me. They consider my activity to be more important than theirs (gathering results). Courtesy goes a long way. Hi Jason, that’s a good question!

I wonder if visitors will appreciate the ability to leave feedback on the blog? I'm sure they will, as long as it doesn't come across as an advert. Interesting idea?
