I wonder how much Quora paid for that fluff piece. The real question is: why is Quora not making money now? Quora has been going since 2009 with zero revenues, and has over 100 staff burning through investment money. If they could be making money already they would, and the lack of proper metrics is extremely suspicious. It's highly likely that answers are not as monetizable as the company thinks. If they were, they'd be doing it already. I also think that founders that try to get rich off of the free labor of contributors have no future. I wrote an analysis of this company a while back, but it still stands: http://newslines.org/blog/why-quora-joined-y-combinator/ http://newslines.org/blog/why-quora-joined-y-combinator/
