    Do you love how Hub Pages (and other sites) have become more like Facebook and Yahoo Answers?

    I don't know how long the Q/A feature has been on Hub Pages and LinkedIn.

    I also don't know if Yahoo Answers is the first of its kind as far as THAT style of q/a goes....

    Well, I think that from my perspective it's nice to connect with other writers so yes, I enjoy the parallel

    I personally do love it. Its a great feature that lets writers communicate with each other on a more personal basis then just commenting on hubs.

    Many people feel intimated by others sending them personal messages so it's a nice way to start a friendship with somebody

    also shared information is great.
    Why do it somewhere else like Yahoo Answers instead of here!

    Yes i think it is the way forward. It is a lot easier to interact with fellow hubbers and share articles smile

    I am not so sure if I want to compare HP with either FaceBook or especially Yahoo Answers. I do appreciate the interactions but HP is not a Social site.

    I don't think you know what you're talking about. HP is nothing like those other sites.

    Actually hubpages.com made me forget about yahoo answers and Facebook. I got tired of fake relationships and security issues on Facebook. And, yahoo answers doesn't really give enough feedback, plus the users are often rude and careless.  I found a community of writers with talent, manners and class on hubpages.com. Thanks to you all and enjoy your holidays.
