FormSpring is a relatively new social networking and self-profiling website that has recently been gaining popularity surprisingly quickly. Two individuals interact via the website by the anonymous visitor asking the owner of the profile a question using the form on the profile page, and the identified owner publicly responding to the question. Essentially, the visitors create a FAQ page for the profile owner, but instead of a FAQ, it’s an AAQ (the A in All replacing the F in Frequently).Go to a mirror and say AAQ (the sound the letters make as a whole, not the letters themselves) twenty times without laughing or expelling snot and I’ll give you a cookie.(Of course, it doesn’t necessarily have to be all asked questions; if the profile owner receives a question he or she does not wish to answer, he or she can simply delete it from the unanswered questions queue.)If you’re wondering, yes, I do have a FormSpring page at formspring.me/adamparkzer. However, you may notice that I have not answered any questions for about a month. I have been asked numerous times why I am not answering more questions and if I am going to answer any more in the future, and decided it would be a good idea to respond on my blog, then use my response as a cue to cleverly introduce a new feature on my blog.So to keep it simple, the straightforward answer is No. I will not be answering any more questions on my FormSpring account. The reason for this is that I have had too much of my time wasted with FormSpring, particularly from people submitting things that are stupid or aren’t even questions. I have 255 answered questions publicly visible, but I got over a thousand submissions that I did not respond to, most of them relating to the length of my genitals or my sexual orientation, or were conversational (meaning they were not actually questions). I wasted too much time sifting through and deleting questions I didn’t want to answer that I felt it would be best if I just stopped using FormSpring entirely.However, you’re not completely out of luck for asking me questions that you would like me to publicly address. Starting from tomorrow, I will be answering one question on my blog every time I post a blog entry. These questions will either be questions that I’m asked frequently in person, or specially requested questions by my blog readers.If you would like to submit a question for me to answer, feel free to e-mail them to me. If you would like to receive credit for your question, be sure to make note of that in your e-mail.That’s all for today, humans. I’ll see you tomorrow to discuss discussing.
