\"quoralogo100.jpeg\"Adam D’Angelo was a programming genius who knew Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in high school, became the young company’s first CTO and has just begun to unveil his new startup company, Quora<\/a>. Built by D’Angelo and a team of crack young engineers, Quora is a real-time enabled Q&A site. The company calls itself “A continually improving collection of questions and answers.” In our very early testing it’s a pleasure to use, but we’re going to share screen shots with you tonight and write about it in depth after more extensive use tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Is this the next Facebook? Probably not – but it does look pretty fabulous. The service is still in closed beta (we’ve been trying to get in for months) but here’s some screenshots that show some key features.<\/p>\n

Quora is a little like Aardvark<\/a>, the social Q&A service founded by ex-Googlers and rumored to be in Google’s acquisition sites, and it’s a little like Stack Overflow<\/a>, the carefully crafted Q&A site for programmers that’s shot through the roof with reader interest. \u00a0It’s definitely different though. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Co-founder Charlie Cheever says it’s built on Tornado, the real-time infrastructure built by FriendFeed, then bought and open sourced by Facebook. That’s a nice touch.<\/p>\n

Here’s what we’ve seen so far. Click these screenshots to get a bigger view of each of them. There are more coming up.\u00a0We’ll do our best to offer invites tomorrow morning.<\/p>\n
