Review: American Mensa's CultureQuest®-ion of the Day

By William F. Bultas

The CultureQuest®-ion of the Day is a free service from American Mensa. You can sign up for their free service to receive the new question in your inbox each day. This is a truly 100% free service - not a trial offer, etc. You do not need to be a current or former member of Mensa to subscribe.

The questions are short and to the point, and are followed by yesterday's question, along with the answer to yesterday's question. A nice way to augment your trivia knowledge ;-)

CultureQuest® is a friendly competition held by American Mensa each year. An excerpt from their CultureQuest® page:

"While CultureQuest® might be considered a trivia game or competition, its intent has always been to promote and test cultural literacy. From film to politics, from literature to geography and from music to history, Mensan teams of up to five members gather in their neighborhoods on a single day across the U.S. and Canada and, for 90 minutes, compete for cash prizes and cultural literacy bragging rights."

Again, Mensa membership is not required to subscribe to the CultureQuest®-ion of the Day, and you don't have to participate in CultureQuest®, but if you find that this is "your cup of tea," you may want to look into participating in both.
