When you post a question in AskMe, on preview, you're shown similar questions and asked whether you've seen those. Is there a way to open that functionality up as a search tool?

Just wanted to call attention to an AskMe that really takes you on a roller-coaster ride -- opening with
sadness, stopping off at
beauty, providing lots of
warm fuzzies throughout, stopping off for a surprising dollop of
disgust on the way to inexplicable
hilarity (ymmv), and ending up being a great reference point for anybody in a relationship.

How was the AskMe about "your favorite frugalities" chatfilter? Seemed like a legitimate
question to me with some decent, interesting answers. Bad deletion.

To know that people will post
questions like this, and that other people -- strangers -- will help as they have...I hope Matt still is able to steal a few minutes now and then to take some pride in what he's created.

Don't get me wrong -- I want to know how stuff on AskMe turns out. I don't think MeTa is the ideal place for that, though. What about allowing askers to post a followup in their own threads, even if they'd been closed & archived, which would put that thread on a new page, like the "fantastic posts" page we have now, which could be called "resolutions" or "how'd it turn out" or some such.

There was an AskMe thread today about essential software to take on tech support calls to loved ones' computers over the holidays. It got deleted, I assume because the question's been asked and answered a couple of times. (+)

There are a couple of threads going in AskMe dealing with 'net addiction workarounds...Can they be combined into a single thread? Because
I can't stop clicking back and forth between them!

So there's roughly 8,000 questions now in AskMe (# of June questions x 11 months).... May I humbly request an update on the tagging project, or any other ponies that could help make this the great resource it's screaming to be? And has any more thought been given to how metadata could be added to the questions already in the db?

Not that there's a lot of State Department material around these parts, to be diplomatic about it, but croutonsupafreak has
posted an exemplary answer to an AskMe query on how to join the U.S. Foreign Service. Check it out: he just keeps giving and giving.
