For a long time whenever Australians have met, they’ve been asking each other ‘ow-y-garn‘. One word. The most frequent response is ‘not-bad ‘. Can you think of two more negative words, ‘not’ and ‘bad’ to describe how you feel?
The 100 point ‘How are you going‘ scale will enable you to give a more precise answer to the question.
The scale goes from zero (dreadful) through to 100 (absolutely fantastic). Your can score any number from 0 to 100.
Our objective is to have tens of thousands of Australians record their daily score and have the results reported at the end of the nightly news. We believe it will also be useful for corporate organizations to get a picture of how their staff are going – and health and workers compensation insurers.
Initially we’re going to ask people to register with:
a single user name (ideally something original – a nickname perhaps …)
an email address.
The System
Here’s what the ‘How are you going‘ scoring system looks like:
Here’s How It Works
- When you register all you need to do is provide us with just one name – any name, real, nick or imaginary – plus your email address. This information is securely stored with your name and email address only being used to send you the weekly email.
- On registering you’ll receive your first email from us inviting you to record your first ‘how are you going score’.
You’ll also be asked to provide some demographic details, gender, age range, state and postcode. The reason for this is that further down the track we’ll be able to analyze the results in more detail. Your score and the other details will be completely anonymous. - From then on, each Monday you’ll receive an email letting you know what the average score was for last week and inviting you to record your weekly ‘How are you going’ score – again and again and again.
