Yedda on TechCrunch
Michael Arrington from TechCrunch posted today a review on Yedda. Excerpt:
Yedda is doing a number of things differently than the other guys, and one feature in particular stands out. If you would like to answer questions, you can register, via tags, on topics that you feel you are qualified to discuss. Yedda will then reach out to you via email (or RSS or IM) when questions come in that you might want to answer. I’ve registered myself under a few different topics, and it seems to me that I’m more likely to read an email asking for my help than remember to go to the site and browse for questions. That may give this small startup the edge it needs to carve out a successful niche for itself.
Another feature I like is that they allow users to post questions of any length, and include pictures. The other services don’t allow this. Yedda also has a flat hierarchy (v. Yahoo Answers, which forces a category assignment), and tag suggestions based on a semantic analysis of the question. Finally, they will keep a question “fresh” until answered. What all this means: Yedda is making a real effort to help people get questions answered, and then using those completed questions in the future to help others.
If there is room for an independent service in this space, Yedda may be in a good position to win.
Give it a try. There is already some good beta user content on the site. A good place to start is to review the questions about Yedda itself, here.

I love that term that he invented just for this post, “keep a question fresh”. We may actually use this 
As always, Michael gets it. Note that he gave you all a huge complement -

That’s you folks
Gotta agree with him. Reading your questions and answers is a source of constant pleasure for us all over here at Yedda HQ. Thank you for making Yedda such a lively place so quickly!
