Formspring Hits 4 Billion Answers; Transforms Into Content Curator With Smile Sort

formspring-logoAs Sarah wrote in November, social Q&A service Formspring has been making an effort to slowly build out the connections between its users by offering "who made you smile" and "who you responded to" categories to user profiles, but it is also going up against Facebook by becoming a "network built around users' interests." Of course, the site has to contend with the billions of "Likes" accumulated on Facebook, which compose its own interest graph, and it has done so with "Smiles," Formspring's equivalent of "Likes."Today, the service is adding another feature to its functionality, a tool called "Smile Sort" that aims to transform the service into a content curator.
