New KDnuggets Poll is asking:

Here are the results of KDnuggets Poll: How much did you use text analytics / text mining in the past 12 months? (Feb 2014), which surprisingly find no significant change in the past 2 years.

For comparison, here are the results from previous polls

• How much did you use text analytics/text mining (Jul 2011)
• Text Analytics Use (March 2009)

which show that in the past text analytics use increased slowly.
