Agreed. The poll-name in the middle could be longer, thats true. The url 
needs to stay short though. And I like the onMouseOver-text-idea for the 
names. To make them longer just as they are seems not possible if you 
want them to stay in a circle, right? But I agree, 2 letter for a name 
is pretty little.

I like the pointers more in this case. Best would be a "Settings-page" 
where everybody could make is favorite settings for the display. Wouldnt it?
