#qotd Question of the Day

Happy Bastille Day! What's your favorite part of French culture?

I'd like to revive a great feature from the Vox blogging platform -- the question of the day. It was a great way to overcome writers block and meet like-minded people. And it's a lot of fun!

So feel free to reshare this post, add your thoughts, and share with the circle of your choice. If posting publicly use the #qotd hash tag.

Still stumped? Try using Sparks and search for french related things!

Cheers,

Paul

Hello Paul, wanna get into my "En Français" circle?

La Rochelle and more generally, the west coast.

definitely the food. Holy cow, the French can cook.

I was just at Mount Vernon yesterday and saw the key to the Bastille hanging on the wall. Apparently, it was given to Washington by Lafayette!

Does the # work for searching on Google+? Apparently it does, otherwise you wouldn't have told us to use it. But it only works for public posts? And comments? Can I #Vox on posts that I make for my circles and then people in my circles who search for that # can see the posts? So many questions... :-)

But to answer your QoTD, my favorite French cultural thing is outdoor cafes and wine/champagne drinking in the afternoon. Oh, and inventing the best kind of kisses is another invaluable contribution to society from the French.

Parisian women, another good one.

Patty -- can't comment on future features, but I do have the good fortune of working with Chris Messina -- who knows a thing or two about hash tags..
