The Straight Dope - Fighting Ignorance Since 1973. Knowledge Genie™ Twttrstrm: Squidoo Turns Twitter into Yahoo Answers. A few attempts have been made to turn Twitter into a more robust Q&A platform than it already is. For example, services like Twtpoll and Strawpoll let you create a question and will then give you a unique URL to track the answers. Squidoo is taking things a bit further though, leveraging the concept of Q&As to turn Twitter into a massive content creation service for them, through a new product dubbed Twttrstrm. The idea is to ask a question to your Twitter followers, and have Squidoo place the answers – and lots of supplemental information – on a brand new Lens (the Squidoo equivalent of a Wikipedia page).
