Editor's Notes

  1. A Q&A site that launched in 2010Founded by 2 former FB employees- Adam D’Angelo and Charlie CheeverWeb had social networks, news sites, and wikipedia that rounded up online and off line sourcesQuora made the case the internet was missing out on a valuable knowledge source- personal experiences
  2. Others make attempts to organize world knowledge with sophisticated algorithms; Google & IBM WatsonQuora wants to provide a place where all the information in peoples heads that is not written down can be shared
  3. Our focus is on expert information- relying on data that is accurateProviding opportunity to see what trending – web design advancementsExpand our markets- West cost Silicon Valley and NYC- targeting the Midwest
  4. Unique ability to provide only the best information1/3 in an emerging market with plenty of potential to feed the need for knowledge
