Conversations about Cquestrate
Cquestrate launched just over two weeks ago and we’ve already seen a great level of discussion on the website. Some of the comments and contributions have started to move the project forward in encouraging ways.
However, discussions about Cquestrate aren’t restricted to this website and it has been fascinating to read, and contribute to, what has been going on elsewhere. Here’s a very small sample:
- Alexis Madrigal covered Cquestrate on the Wired Science blog
- FT.com’s Undercover Economist mentioned Cquestrate after meeting Tim Kruger
- Larvatus Prodeo has hosted a long-running, well-informed debate
- A Slashdot post on the day that Cquestrate launched has so far attracted 874 comments (some funny, some actually quite helpful)
- On the day of launch, Cquestrate was featured in the top 5 ‘upcoming’ environmental stories on Digg
- Cquestrate has made news abroad and has been picked up on in France by Gizmodo.fr and in the djibnet.com forum. Also in Spain on NeoFronteras.
When I come across anything useful I use del.ici.ous to ‘tag’ the page. Links to these tagged pages are collected automatically on our links page for all to see.
Unfortunately, it can be tricky to find all of these conversations. However, it’s important we do our best to follow them – we don’t want to miss out on some potentially valuable information.

Getting ready for launch
With a couple of days left before the website launches we’re just finalising content, producing explanatory videos and making sure that everything is working properly.
We’ve had to move very quickly to ensure that everything is in place as soon as possible. With the first phase of the website almost complete it’ll soon be a case of making sure that word goes out to the people who can help further this project.
The scope is so large that we need a wide spread of expertise – if you, or anyone you know anyone, can help in any way then we look forward to your input. Have a look at the questions we need to answer and leave your comments on the relevant pages.
