| Description | Hyperlocal Q&A site |
Askaro is a hyperlocal site to exchange information where it matters the most: neighborhoods, places or work, etc. The proposition is simple, ask a question in a specific area by placing it on a map, hoping that people who live or know the area would give you an unbiased and helpful answer.
Askaro combines geolocation, question and answer model and reputation, as basis of its inner workings. Questions are asked, or placed, in a specific area of a city, in order to reach out to the people who live or intimately know the area and are capable of answering them. An analogy would be to stick a flyer at your local grocery store to reach out only to passersby, or people in your neighborhood.
