I guess the hype is wearing off? It was bound to happen when it was evangelized like the second coming of christ by TechCrunch et al. I'm guessing that the vast majority of users is realizing that it's not much more than a new Q&A-site that was fortunate/skilled enough to get a lot of Silicon Valley elite on board as users at an early stage.
It will be interesting to watch Quora in the coming times, they're facing some of the same troubles as HN is facing: it gained popularity because the quality of content was high due to the contributors often being well-connected SV-elite. Now they're facing the backlash of popularity; low-quality content on both the Q and A side of the equation.
EDIT: Not to say that SV-elite means guaranteed quality content, but "they" provided(provides?) a lot of interesting insight on Quora.
