We’ve already written about FormSpring.me, a free question and answer services that is getting more and more browsers, users and most importantly: questions. At almost 28.000.000 users, FormSpring is using its $14 million in funding from angel investors like Kevin Rose and Dave Morin as well as, it seems their biggest investor, Baseline Ventures which participated both in the angel and A round of financing.
Business Insider’s Boonsri Dickinson caught up with FormSpring’s CEO Ade Olonoh, who started the project at his old job with FormStack. FormSpring reached a million registered users in just a month, when he decided that the project needs to become a company and moved it to San Francisco.

- The problems with kids being trolls on the service and how they fixed it;
- How they surface the best content with “smiles”;
- What they’re planning for 2012.
