I think this project will be something some day soon.  Very soon.

So we all have our favourite question site. And we all know the big-brand takes on the space. But now there’s the Web 2.0 Q&A sites: Wondir (Wondr?), Oyogi (in beta, of course) and the latest, Yedda.

Cool beans

Have you been receiving a bunch of emails for the same Best Answer? Or, maybe you haven’t been receiving notifications at all? What gives?

We recently released a bug fix, and although it took care of one issue it seems to have created some problems with the best answer email notifications we usually send out.

We apologize for any inbox flooding this may have caused. We are aware of the problem, and have a team of insecticide-wielding Yamsters working on a fix for this new bug as we speak.

It’s been very interesting around here since we launched the Yedda public beta…

There is no way we can describe the excitement - seeing you folks asking questions you care about; getting answers that help you out; sharing your knowledge with other people.

But enough of that. We’ve been busy talking with you, hearing what you think should be changed, and fixing what needs to be fixed. There have been many small fixes, here are some of the bigger changes we’ve made:

• Opera compatibility

  Fixed issues related to the Opera browser, mainly with regards to how pages are cached. Yedda should work great with Opera now, let us know if you run into any more issues.

  (Mac Safari users: we still have some glitches with Safari, they should be fixed very soon)

• Text Editor popup windows

  The popup windows in the text editor had a tendency not to close. Now they do.

• Social Bookmarks

  To make bookmarking Q&As and sharing them with your friends easier, we’ve added shortcuts to several social bookmarking sites just above the question text. If your favorite bookmarking service is missing from the list, let us know.

• Blog This

  Do you blog? Seen an interesting Q&A on Yedda that you’d like to share with your blog readers? It’s easier now with the “blog this” link, found above the question text.

I’ve said it before – video is an extremely helpful way to answer questions. It's one thing to tell someone a vital piece of information, but showing them opens up so many more opportunities.

Since we keep talking about this concept so much, we teamed up with some of the Yahoo! Video team members and decided to go out on a limb by using video to ask a few questions. We’ve recorded videos of ourselves asking each question, and astute Answerers will note that we’ve already asked our questions on Answers.

Here’s the catch, next Wednesday we will be choosing best answers for these questions, and the best answer for each question will have to be answered in the form of a video. Film your answer and upload it to Yahoo! Video. Then include the link in your Answer to our question. Click here for a look at all the questions, rules, and instructions for uploading your videos and answering questions. For those who wish to embed videos in blog posts, check this out.

You will notice that the featured questions throughout the next week will consist primarily of the Yahoo! Answers Staff questions, so if you have trouble finding them simply revisit the Answers front page.

Also, each staff member will be blogging about their question, so make sure to check back for input from the rest of the gang.

Here are the videos, with each question linked in below:

Have fun, we can’t wait to see what kind of answers we get from the eyes of your video cameras.
