Does this BB have polling?
My perception of polling would be where I could leave a poll up for extended indefinite periods like for feedback on two competing products.

Yep, you can check the faq for how it is used.

I found the FAQ:Putting a poll in your post is simple, but remember: Posts with polls in them cannot be edited but they may be deleted.To add a poll to your post, use this format: Is there an example somewhere on this site? Or some screen shots of how this is done. I'm looking at polling setup from an admin pov - I was thinking that I'd setup a forum like "vote for your product" and have the poll as a post in that forum.Would there be some other way to do that? Essentially I don't want the poll to get buried among other posts in a forum.Thanks,

You could make the post sticky so it always shows up in the top position(s).

Barrett-- If you want to see what they look like, you can go to my board. There are several of them on What If--The Ingenuity Forum. There is a way to have the latest poll appear on your front page too, like I do. Click below to see how that looks. Hope this is of some help. :-Doug.

Well it looks like the polling function has a lot of potential. In the least it is a big plus in choosing wwwT for my BB choice.
I will need to explore further this capability. I'm inclined to think I'd want a whole section/forum for various polls verse getting them buried in posts.
Thanks,
Barrett

Are the www.macfixit.com people using wwwT for their polls or something else? http://www.macfixit.com/quickpoll/viewresults.shtml

Looks like they are using something else. Possibly called quickpoll?
