In this regard, Quora seems to be in a unique position among similar web sites. Why doesn't StackExchange have a "race problem", for example? (And what I really mean by "race problem" is people complaining about it, somehow feeling uncomfortable or discouraged by it, rather than the "problem" itself.) I think Quora's more fundamental problem is that the rules of the social game were not well though out. For example, I find that the user's feed can become too noisy too quickly. It is too easy for someone to add a crappy unrelated question into a topic you follow. As a result you see people who value their time leaving the social network, no matter how "intellectualist" the network wanted to be in the beginning. Indians just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time: exactly at the time of interesting people (including interesting Indians) leaving. Somehow I'm still hoping to see Quora's revival. Just noticed a question about Noam Chomsky and thought: so why doesn't Noam Chomsky himself answering it? This wouldn't sound like a fantasy a few years ago. If I were Quora, I'd re-think the user's dashboard with those who value their time in mind.
