Great feedback it's appreciated and I'll look at integrating it.

On the news feed part, I did int8ially have the question included however there is a limit on the number of chars you can add so if the question was long it would not get added. hence why I went for the standard text.

simple solution: write what you can of the question, then include ellipses. A "xxx has asked Hey! Help me out?" entry in a news feed does not clearly indicate that xxx asked a question that he wants his friends to answer. "xxx wants you to answer his question: 'blah blah blah...'" is vastly better, imho
