More listings
I'm very happy to see that the site gets listed in web 2.0 directories, and gets reviews. Here are some of last week (BTW, in case you are wondering, Technorati is my spy).
Got listed on a German site:
http://www.web2null.de/about2findout
And on this one:
http://diystartupnews.com/2008/03/25/about2findout-beta/
Like the comment 'the pub quiz without the pub'.
And on Techie-buzz they say:
About2FindOut is a site which quizzes you on various topics, it allows community members to answer quizzes as well as solve it. So if you are a avid solver of quizzes head there and solve quizzes or create some cool ones and share them with others.
There is an article and review on socialtake.com that I like to quote from:
"Why it might be a killer - This trivia site will agree with thinking minds all over the world. The quizzes actually make you think, unlike other game sites out there. Plus, you’ll get to compete against other people, make challenges, and find out if you’re really the fab brain you think you are." Indeed, I do hope people learn some things (also about themselves) when they are on the site. They also end with a very pertinent question "Are questions vetted in any way? How accurate are the answers?". I might need to work further on that one, but for the moment people can send a message to the author and administrators with the link 'I think it is wrong.' The author can then reply or change his question. Administrators can also edit all questions. So far this has worked well, and on the 700 question I guess about 10 have been corrected so far.
Finally an article on two Italian sites (that I can't read unfortunately):
