Abstract

In one embodiment, a method of a curated answers system includes automatically populating a profile markup page of a user with information describing an initial query of a database that the user has generated using a processor and a memory, determining that another user of the database has submitted a similar query that is semantically proximate to the initial query of the database that the user has generated, and presenting the profile markup page of the user to the other user. The method of the curated answers system may include enabling the other user to communicate with the user through a communication channel on the profile markup page. A question of the other user may be published to the user on the profile markup page of the user, and/or other profile markup page of the other user. The question may be associated as being posted by the other user.
