Instructions
There are topics about Technology and Design, Lifestyle, Entertainments, Politics, Society... Every dichotomy has the same peculiarity, there are two choices, A or B, one or the other. Your choice must be reasoned, you have to tell why you choose one from the other. Registration is not required, you do not have to tell me your name, website or e-mail, just tell me why.
You can discuss other people´s arguments by pointing at the #number of the other column, this way we encourage the dicussion to get the bests arguments in every topic.
It is also a way to get the right decission when you are not sure about something, you can read what others think about it.
There will be also funny dichotomies, topics just for fun and for entertainment where there won´t be strong arguments but just sympathy or even fanatism.
I hope you enjoy the discussion and make yor point in a civilized way because justtellmewhy.com is not responsible in any way of the contents written by the users .

What?
Just tell me why is a new web service 2.0. It is an hybrid between a social marker, a blog and a forum. It is based on dichotomies, a subject with a clear division of opinions. Each user stands for his own opinion, two choices. A survey with arguments.Dichotomies resolved by the majority.

Who?

When?
The spanish version pqpq.es was launched on the 24th of February of 2008. The english version was launched the 9th of March of 2008.
What for?
Just for fun, this project is an experiment, its success and future depends on your acceptance.
To whom?
For everybody. The topics are socials, about entertainment, about computers, design, internet, beauty, serious, trivials, politics, TV. For people who like arguing, defend their opinion, make a point, share their knowledge, just for everyone.
