Most of the sites being discussed are mega sites, and while they get a lot of traffic they don't necessarily provide the best answers. The niche Q&A sites will ultimately become the best of Q&A. Not as high profile, but much better.
I'm biased because I'm the co-founder of YouSaidIt. We provide niche Q&A sites... but with a big difference. We focus on expert Q&A as well as the community. Our Q&A is more like a "town hall" or "expert roundtable". At one site, The Stranger (Seattle's biggest alt weekly) we have had the Mayor answering questions, Dan Savage giving advice, Paul Constant giving personal book recommendations, and candidates running for office.
We haven't even begun to see the places where Q&A will go.
