Product Information:
Formspring (formerly known by its full URL formspring.me) is a question-and-answer-based social website, launched in November 2009. The site allows its users to set up a profile page, from which anyone can ask them questions. The questions and their given responses are then published on the user's profile page. It is operated by Formspring.me, Inc., a company headquartered in San Francisco.The questions can be asked with a user's name hidden, or they can be visibly sent from another Formspring
account, according to the asker's preference. User
s can however choose to disallow anonymous questions, and have the ability to block selected people from asking further questions, eve
n if the asker has remained anonymous. The site also allows users to link their accounts to many popular social networking and blogging websites, including Facebook, Twitter, and Blogger.On February 9, 2011, Formspring a
nnounced on its blog that it was approaching 22 million registered users.

D. How students can make the most out of the software (increase their productivity) for their work in school:
It does not really help the students in the work in school, but it helps them withe their personal and private lives. How? Formspring.me is a site where you can ask anything without being known. It is also a place where you can post the silliest, dumbest and the most stupid questions you can ever think off. But it is a good place to ask your crushes or the apple of your eye questions that you cant ask them personally.
E. Product evaluation of the group with respect to productivity
Ranging from 1-5 and 5 as the highest i would give formspring a 1.5 or 2, because it is not needed by everyone. I believe that the only people who still use this is people who still don't have the guts to ask another person without pissing his pants. True you will gather information, but you will never gather self-confidence from these kinds of sites.
