Are any of you on Formspring? I'm trying to assess what it's good for, but it would be helpful if I knew some other people on it. Here's the site :

So you can ask your friends anything .. and get replies.
The company gets to mine a huge range and depth of data which they can aggregate and sell on as 'anonymous stats'.
- Sounds like a profitable business potentially.lukus_W
- What kind of stats can you mine from "asdf I luv ur vag, blow me cuntface hot lesbian bitch"?ismith
- heheh, erm - okay, you have a point ;)lukus_W
- Those kind of "questions" seem to make up 99%, the above profiles from QBN being the ironic exception.ismith
- ahh hehe ;)
If anything they could put up tiny ads or mine "popularity", but no actual content.ismith

I did the logo :D (well, minus the .me bit, that was tagged on by someone else here when they launched Formspring.me). We've pretty much worked with them from the start, and Formspring.me has been amazingly successful since its launch.
Their team are shipping out from Indiananapolis and relocating to San Francisco, effectively splitting the .com and .me companies into two separate companies – we've just rebranded Formspring.com as Formstack.
Ok, thread hijack over. Back to it!
