Good link. It’s interesting that so many people still don’t see that 1) Quora is doing something pretty interesting and 2) has assembled a pretty good team.

It’s an interesting read but I still don’t understand Quora. It’s a website without a revenue stream or a stated objective of how it will earn money. It looks like they are gathering lots of content via users that eventually will have to used to earn revenue. So why not tell the users now how the data will be used. We’ve only got half the story.
