Learning2.0 : Journey to about2findout.com

Youdontknowjack.com is based on a once popular game show with the same name. It is a very enteraining and witty quiz with nice questions. It is not a web 2.0 site at all, because the visitor is a mere consumer of the quiz, but I love the way they make it an engaging experience.

Every week, they post a flash-based quiz online that has a lot of outspoken comment, multiple choice questions, jackattack or didorthat questions. You play for fake dollars and a high score list is maintained. (Hint: try to position your mouse right on the top of Jack's nose.) I will never make something like that because it requires too much time each week in selecting the questions and especially the comments, but the game show format is a nice idea. If I ever get around to it, I prefer to have an API interface to about2findout.com where people can get their questions from that they can insert in quizzes like these. But that's the future. For now, I'm very much enjoying this kind of trivia experience.
