I like it, seems very cohesive and simple.
May I ask how do you got people making questions and answer them ? I ask this, because I'm also creating a startup that will need user input in order to grow, so I'm trying to get some tips from others.
- maxwin 17y agomy hypothesis: - choose a select group (eg. HNs,friends,family) -deliberately create some questions that are highly relevant, interesting or controversial so that most visitors of this group cannot resist the temptation to answer. -whenever there is a change to that question, email visitors so that they will come back and answer or ask more. - copy most features of StackOverflow -Some of these visitors may become loyal and then they might bring their friends or at least chat about it. - repeat the process. -When you have large enough user base (or question/answer_base), techcrunch or other media might cover you. - repeat the process and you go big!
