I was approached by the original owners before the site was running to join as a Channel Producer for Music.

There were seven of us, and we wrote feature for each of our sections, and answered all the lovely questions. When the site took off and became 'stand-alone', the writers were released, but I stuck around, and barring holidays and illness, I have visited it every day since it started.

i saw it advertised in a newspaper, either the Evening Standard of the Guardian or the Independent.

Can I please ask Andy Hughes: were Incitatus and SGS two of the original recruits with you?

Last September, I was looking for somewhere to post this question:
http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Science/Question140971.ht ml

Since then, I've posted another 5 questions and 2253 answers but I still don't think I've got a 'perfect' answer to my original question!

I googled a question about why blood is red/ blue and it gave me the answerbank. I became an instant addict and have not looked back since. I have only shared this website with a few people, most people think i am really intelligent when i geting my answers from here!!

I googled how to curl you hair with GHDs last year and it brought up this lovely site. Im such a girl! I wish it was something scientific now!

Coggles & Wispy68 recommended AB to me, way back in 2002.

[picklepants]

Like many others I put in a search through Google for buying something. Led to this website and now I am an addict - spend most of my free time at work scrawling through the questions and answers - find it fascinating! And the variety of questions that get asked - some deadly serious and others a load of twaddle!

I was trying to track down Cremola Foam......

[andy-hughes]

Hello Hgrove - no they weren't. Incitatus is an academic, as I recall, always gave very erudite and informed answers, and is missed on here. I don;t think any of the 'originals' stayed on, except me, but I am happy to be corrected.

Was trying to work out how maltesers are covered in chocolate so smoothly and search engine led me here. Many changes over the years, some good and some not so good.

I googled for questions and answers to an insect question, a few sites came up, and I asked on two of them, this being one, and I got my answer from woofgang, she also welcomed me, which was nice, and i've stayed ever since.

[Drusilla1S]

I was trying to find the name of the model in the dreadful 'loincloth,' Head and Shoulders advert.

It's the one question I've asked that has never been answered, correctly. So, if anyone knows her name, I'm still waiting!
