Question Technologies
 PROFILE
It's not a dating service, but Question Technologies (formerly Question.com) likes to call itself an electronic "relationship management" company. The firm helps businesses improve their Web sites by providing an e-business infrastructure that gives online customers the ability to ask natural language questions and get answers from businesses. Services include developing a FAQ (frequently asked questions) page and online public forum settings. The company was founded in 2000 when it was spun off from Ventix Systems (now merged with Motive Communications). Company CEO and chairman David Sikora was one of the co-founders. Investors include Austin Ventures, GE Equity, Intel Capital, and Vignette.
