It has got its popularity because of the contribution of the experts from various corners of the world. Thousands of questions are asked and replied by different users everyday.

Few weeks before I got an idea which will really help the experts, who are eager to answer the questions asked by various users in StackOverflow. I thought…

"Why not give a try to create something which will notify the experts about every new questions posted in StackOverflow This will definitely  increase their interaction with the users."
