Users ask a question on the Answerthon website and then the question is instantly posted on the twitter network creating alot of traffic with users on twitter wanting to answer the question or just have a look at whats going on.
The software getting used by Answerthon is great, it has all the features for the end user that you would more than likly find on Yahoo answers with points for answering questions, best answer, leaderboard and uploading your picture.
The boys at Answerthon hope that this system will take them from a start up to a site with loads of information that will one day compete at the highest level of the question & answer world.
Michael Rafferty of Answerthon says "when we were thinking of ideas to start a website that could be integrated with twitter, the Q&A sector really looked like the best option as we want to see what is possible without spending any money on marketing, on site or off.
This truly is a WhiteHat story. To see whats going on at Answerthon come and see http://www.Answerthon.com.
