My first encounter with AnyAsq, which has the tag line “Where interesting people say: ‘Ask me anything.’”
[Google+ project technical lead, Google engineer Joseph] Smarr has already answered 270 queries, and as of press time, his AnyAsq page is still open for questions. Here’s some of what he has revealed so far:
- Google+ fast tracked its development from the start
“We put extra emphasis on engineering speed/agility–we try to release code updates on a daily basis while still keeping quality/stability/latency as high as you’d expect from Google.”
- New features are absolutely on the way
“…Personally I’m eager for many of the features other Google+ users have asked for recently: smarter ranking/collapsing/filtering in the stream and notifications… integration with more Google products… and an API so I can start hacking on cool uses of circles, etc.”
- Hashtags are on Google+’s radar
In response to a question about adding hashtags to help filter Google+ posts, Smarr responded: “Personally, I want this too.”
