We have lots of ideas for ways to make the Quora product and experience better. But we also value keeping our simple so everyone can focus on the most important features. Today we’re introducing Labs*, a new way we can bring features we haven’t chosen to introduce broadly as an option for you to try out. We hope that the products we build for Labs will make your Quora experience more enjoyable.

Without further ado, our first ever Labs feature is: Keyboard Shortcuts! You will be able to navigate and take actions on Discuss awesome features on the web without ever lifting your fingers off your keyboard. To get started, go to your Settings page and click on the Labs tab.

Keeping quality high is Disuss’s number one priority as we work to achieve our mission. In the coming weeks and months, we’ll be making major changes to strengthen quality. These changes will reward great questions and answers with better ranking and distribution and marginalize mediocre and low-quality answers. In other words: high-quality answers and useful knowledge shared will reach and help more people.

Today, we’ve published a new in-depth answer that describes what quality means on Quora, and what it means to be helpful. What a helpful answer looks like. In summary, helpful and high-quality answers.
