Answers.com announced today that WikiAnswers has passed the one million question milestone.
The millionth question, placed in the Science and Environment category, was “Are there readily available substitutes for gold in industrial applications?”, asked at 12:22 pm.
“We are thrilled by this achievement,” said Jay Bailey, Director of Marketing and Community Development. “The rate at which our community of contributors is growing is testament to the attractiveness of the WikiAnswers approach.”
This ranks WikiAnswers as the second-fastest growing domain of the top 1,500. Bailey noted that yesterday, registered users grew by 1,867, a new daily record.
“The site’s features continue to improve, based almost exclusively on the requests and suggestions of the community, led by our talented and dedicated volunteer Supervisors. It takes the guesswork out of our development plan, as they know exactly what changes will yield a better experience for our contributors.”
