Are the questions on Askville becoming nonsense like the ones on Yahoo answers?

After Amazon posted a link in their website and referred their customers to Askville for customer service type questions it seems that we have a whole lot of questions asked by newbies who are just looking for X. That is one factor that reduces the quality of questions here on Askville. About your other point, I should say that there are different types of questions.

Some of them are funny questions, some need very simple answers and some others need well thought out answers. It is hard to find them because it seems that the number of questions is growing. When I scanned questions from the front page I used to get 120 pages of questions at most.

Now we get around 200 pages of them! It shows that the number of questions has been increased significantly. About your comparison of this place with Yahoo!

Answers I don’t think it is a good comparison. This place still is far better than Yahoo! Answers.

Those Yahoo! Type questions are asked here much less than there! The community here ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
