From there, you can fill in the Custom Poll ID box with whatever your heart desires. If the ID is available, Straw will set your URL up with that custom ID.</p> <p>Straw says that the feature is in beta right now, so you may run into a few hiccups. Still, it's a pretty cool addition, and you can check it out by hitting up the link to the Windows Store below.</p> <ul><li>Free - <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/straw/id925623439?mt=8&amp;at=10l3Vy&amp;ct=d_im" title="" rel="nofollow">Download Now[/url]</li> </ul></div></div></div><br clear='all'/>
