Some examples are: I hope that you will sum up the comments and provide an online document that acknowledges the comments and feedback so we know they have been heard and followed up on. – Concerned Parent   Would you please fix the search function on this website? – Richard An opinion is much more complex than a “thumbs up” or a “thumbs down”. I would urge you to maintain the serious nature of discourse on this site by not oversimplifying opinions but instead by requesting that people respond intelligently and with some detail if they agree or disagree. – Christian   I suggest adding a Facebook like button for the blog! - Parent BC Education Plan is redesigning their website this summer and is looking for your input into what you’d like to see. Complete the survey and visit the discussion forum to leave a comment and/or suggestion.  (http://engage.bcedplan.ca/2012/06/question-21-redesigning-our-website/)   Please share this with your friends, colleagues and networks as well.
