One friend of Adam's liked it better: quiver is cool - I associated it with the noun, more than the verb. the "-er" ending makes me think it's an internet service, although it's a little bit "2.0"-ish. "quora" is nice and simple, a little hard to pronounce. I associate it with "quorum" or public congregation. We've been really happy with Quora. Sometimes people have trouble pronouncing the name or spelling the name when they hear it, but overall, it is short and pretty easy to remember...
