Quorathe popular Q&A announced its latest product, boards where users can now set up their own personal-themed boards.
Users will see a “Create a board” option at the top right of Quora and on their header dashboard. Anything can be posted to the board, links to web content like news and video, images, stuff on Quora like Questions and answers or text commentary.
“As Quora has grown, we’ve learned that people want to read the most interesting content regardless of whether it happens to be in question and answer format or not.” D’Angelo tells me that this shift fits in better with Quora’s new goal, “to connect you with everything you want to know about.” Its old goal was described as “a continuously improving collection of questions and answers,” Writes Quora CEO Adam D’Angelo in a blog post.
Board Owners can add Authors and Followers to a board, as well as pay to add Topics. They can also set up the board in a grid or list format. Boards will also now show up on Topics pages, as well as on your personal Quora profile page.
Relevant boards will now show up in Quora’s search bar, and boards you are following will show up in your top navigation bar.
“We see this as expanding what Quora is. People have their favorite answers. There’s also people who write a lot of stuff and a number of masterpieces. This is a way to bookmark the things that people want to reference a bunch of times,” says D’Angelo.
