Social Question Answering

http://vark.com/ - a new social question answering system!

The feature I like most in that system is real-time updating. It means your questions posted on that online system might be answered in terms of real time manner.

More information about Aardvark is in this blog entry (http://mendicantbug.com/2009/03/13/aardvark-and-social-qa/)

That's actually an interesting research direction.
