Post your comments for Facebook 'Questions' Service Attempts to Crowdsource Answers here

This is PATHETICALLY little and late by FB!!! These other services ended up being forums for FB users because of FB's abominable effort at helping their own users. For instance, among my own questions recently were "what are text entry limitations of Wall and Wall-to-Wall postings?" since it seemed my postings disappeared! I also learned after some difficulties that users are not notified when friends stop being friends. That is a Facebook "FAQ" now, but really, FB should have better explanations and descriptions of all its (tabbed) features and services. The fact that its users have to run to other Q&A forum websites to get the answers is a demonstration of just how much of FB is really an afterthought of just about everything that describes it.

When a service or feature is PLANNED WELL, that usually means there is documentation---yes, IN WRITING---showing the planning. That documentation eventually becomes the basis/draft/kernel for a user/operator guide or manual, or help section. Hey Facebook: do you see how that works?

If you do not worry about someone stealing and misusing your private information, hie thee to Facebook.
Otherwise, avoid it like the plague it is.
