Twitter is now a core tool of user communication, and every new startup indisputably has every right to think out of the blue to develop a mashup from it in order to improve the existing Twitter user experience. In a time of such a Twitter fad, there is a new mashup called ToAnswer and its current offering has every opportunity to explode a new market for them.

On the landing page of ToAnswer, it said this new mashup is a Web app that trying to work as something more or less like a Yahoo! Answers meets Twitter. As a Twitter user, you simply log on to your account, and use the following format, i.e. @ToAsk, and you can instantly pose a question to the Twitterverse. A typical example that ToAnswer given is: @ToAsk Are there any good pizza joints in downtown Los Angeles? Wait for few seconds, your question will be posted in the Twitterverse, and if someone, a Twitter user saw it, and would like to give you a favor, she/he can help you with an answer in the following format, i.e. @ToAnswer [question id]. Note that question id is the identity number of your question in the ToAnswer’s system.

From a user perspective, the decisions about using it must take into account the number of followers in one’s Twitter account. If you’re a Twitter user with a heavy loaded of followers, from few thousands onward, you post a question and instantly your followers will reply to your message, you won’t feel the need to use this ToAnswer. However, if you’ve a handful number of followers, and want to get more value out of Twitter, try this ToAnswer, you’ll realize the power of the Twitter community. Likewise, if one Twitter user desperately want an advice to her own personal problem, try to answer her question and give her a helping hand. In this way, we can make our world a better tomorrow. This is an ultimate aim of developing a Web app, I wish I’m the one who thought of this great idea and developed this application
