Facebook Answers

by Sean on July 7, 2010

Looks like Facebook is gearing up to launch an Answers-type service.

We at Facebook are preparing to launch a brand new product to the world. We think it will be as exciting as Facebook Photos and Facebook Events, but we need your help to make it great.

As a beta tester, your job will be to ask great questions and provide great answers about your favorite topics. Economics? Skydiving? Relationships? Mexican Restaurants? It’s up to you. You’ll be the first person outside of Facebook to use this product. Your expert writing will be seen by tens of millions of people — including job recruiters. And we’ll bring our best beta testers out to California to tour Facebook headquarters and meet the team.

Definitely an easy way to get willing beta testers!

This could be a Yahoo Answers killer. They think it could be as big as Photos? That was a pretty big game changer for Facebook. It would be hard to duplicate that success. That said, the largest audience on the web crowd sourcing Questions and Answers seems like a logical product.

What do you think?
