Quora – think Wikipedia, but different

http://www.quora.com/

Quora is a website where you can ask, answer and edit questions once you’re registered.  You can follow people who talk about what you are interested in and edit responses if you feel they are inaccurate or incomplete.  It’s free and I registered and got up and running in less than a minute.  This site is new to me but comes highly recommended by a colleague.

Here’s the blurb from their website: Quora is a continually improving collection of questions and answers created, edited, and organized by everyone who uses it. The most important thing is to have each question page become the best possible resource for someone who wants to know about the question.

One way you can think of it is as a cache for the research that people do looking things up on the web and asking other people. Eventually, when you see a link to a question page on Quora, your feeling should be: “Oh, great! That’s going to have all the information I want about that.” It’s also a place where new stuff–that no one has written about yet–can get pulled onto the web.

I started Elite Edge at the end of 1999 and I am still as passionate about marketing today as I was then - probably more so because I consider myself very lucky to do a job that I love every day! My area of specialism is strategic planning but like most people these days, I wear many other hats too!
