1. Wiki for every question - With over 120 millions questions in the database this is guaranteed to be an interesting proposition. We had the idea for wikis long ago and even developed a NLP technology to initially populate questions. We plan to use the NLP technology at a later stage.
2. Firefox/IE browser extension - We have had this for a long time as well but released without yet perfecting it. I wrote about the functionality of this extension here but in short, the functionality is to anchor and highlight a question when opening a question (see image).
If you think of other concepts you would like to see please let us know. We’re listening!
And before I go, let me wish you all a happy new year, may all you wish come true in 2008!
Cheers

sahar i love you, i think you are a great hardworking guy yada yada yada the whole nine yards.
Let me have this in plain english, THAT INTERFACE SUCKS. Yeah i know all that functionality b.s is not important right now, but the general public that is going to use your service, thanks to apple and other yummy websites wont be so forgiving.
Now with the millions that you guys make, come on sahar get some cash into doing that interface justice.
Amen. A merry happy new year to you and your family

Thank for the feedback. Money isn’t an issue of course and we tried many different interfaces, just did not like any (and some were what you would call “pretty”). We may offer some advance interfaces as we go along, as I’m sure others will build some as well (once we open our API). At the moment we’re just not too concerned about it.
Cheers, and happy new year to you and family as well!
