A poll mostly for those who live in the United States:

Edit to clarify: "do you use it" means "do you write the ZIP+4 code on the envelope" rather than "do you use any form of ZIP code". (I take it for granted that most people write at least the basic ZIP code.)

[Poll #577139]

I'm curious, because I tend to try to find out ZIP+4 codes when I write to people in the States, perhaps for geek value; however, I've found it extremely rare for people to quote ZIP+4 codes in their addresses.

Wow, you can't edit polls at all?

*nods*

That seems like a sad mistake.

It's partly on purpose, I think, so you can't make a poll saying "Who likes flowers and bunnies?" and then, after sixty people checked the box, change it to "who's a psycho who kills their neighbours for fun?".

But yeah, it can be annoying sometimes, especially when you spot a typo or an ambiguity or you just forgot a question or two. Annoying, too, sometimes that you can't add a poll to an existing entry.

Someone should fix that. :(

You could suggest (http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user=suggestions) it, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
