He could interact a bit more with his fans, but i guess he's busy, but one question a month, bit of a joke really. :
Well look on the bright side. That's way more than David Bowie, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Mick Jagger, Pete Towshend, Robert Plant, or any other aging legend I can think of interacts with their fans.

I think it's fantastically cool Except for the potential for one's feelings getting hurt, should one ask repeatedly and never receive an answer

I found an old Beatle Fan mag from the 80's yesterday among my things with a piece by Derek Taylor about the famed late 60's Apple business with all the Beatles actively involved at the posh London Apple digs, and how remarkable it was that the Beatles "were suddenly accessible to most anyone who dropped by the offices," wrote Taylor. Whereas for so long prior they were "completely out of reach." Made me think how today the Net can suddenly make the biggest stars in the world aware of you even though you're just an "ordinary" non-famous American or whatever. They might chance upon your writings. You should always be hyper aware of what you write on the Net. You could get booted off a site, "banished" forever as has happened here, for instance. (Especially here, LOL)

A big joke really. Have you seen the amount of people asking questions on any given subject on his site? OMG...and if everyone asks more than one question? And he will answer one a month? Or will his team answr one a month?
-
i think its awsome be better if he could do a few a week an send it in a video message.

It said he will actually answer one question per month. :

I think we've got to be canny see. We here on the forum have to decide on one question to ask the git each month, then we all ask the same question in unison. I suggest this month we ask when his next newly recorded album is to be released. Wise idea?
-
yeh lol if we all ask the same we may get an answer

I think this is a great idea I think Paul will take the time to answer the question himself... However he would be wise to have his staff go through all of the questions, like someone mentioned, there are so many! Remember when he did that that one broadcast, where you could call in online, and he actually answered some of them LIVE, including Liverpool Brides ? That was fun!! Then the band came online too and had a few words... It was really nice!! And as someone pointed out, Townsend, Plant, Jagger, Young...ect. Do not do that... Trying to think of a good question... Anyone have that video?

Actually Neil Young is very into his website. You can go on there and read his newspaper NYTimes or Neil Young Times. Before that he had the LWWtoday, Or Living With War Today, during the President Bush era. As far as Paul, I don't have a question for him, but wanted to say I really think that photo of him sitting on that cool antique loveseat looks great. The photo of his face is one of the most handsome shots I have seen in a long time. Thanks 2 whomever took that beautiful photo! Those eyes! woof woof!

I for one was totally surprised when I got the email regarding this. I'm glad that it will be a regular thing and its actually pretty exciting! I think its a great way to connect by answering all kinds of questions that we wouldn't otherwise have the opportunity to ask. Heaven knows my list of questions are practically endless! This definitely gives me something McCartney-related to look forward to monthly

Good point! Also, to be honest, I want this to be something cool to look forward to and a weekly thing would probably get boring fast (not to mention his busy schedule). I think this kind of a monthly thing is perfect, my only complaint is that its just one question. I wish he could answer three each time or something... Still, its a great way to connect directly with fans everywhere on a regular basis.

I was just driving around and the DJ announced this on the radio! Right after he played, 'Listen To What The Man Said.' News is travelling fast.

Just asked my question less than 5 mins. Not as easy as you think

My reading of this is the feedback the questions asked provide to Paul and his team is of greater importance than the single question answered each month. The questions asked provides a litmus test of fans hopes and ambitions and provides the opportunity to target Paul's commercial output to meet those aspirations. So even if unsuccessful in being "The Question" your contributions are helping nudge Paul's plans in the direction you hope he will take. So nudge away Martin

hym so as I read your post Martin..no fun questions? just generic run of the mill.. will you change the set-list .. whats your new album about etc... we wanna talk with Paul not just talk about his up -coming projects...
