Caterina Fake, founder of the popular photo sharing site flickr, is working on a new startup called hunch. Techcrunch has reviewed the site. The site is a decision support system for people having questions on a topic.

Earlier today Flickr co-founder Caterina Fake announced the release of her latest startup, Hunch, in private beta. The site revolves around helping users make decisions spanning a wide array of topics. To help users make their decisions, Hunch presents them with a brief series of questions that have been submitted by other members, using their responses to help them make their ultimate decision. It’s a great idea that combines the crowd-sourced nature of Wikipedia with services like Yahoo Answers.

Given Caterina Fake’s previous success her new startup is getting a lot of press coverage, most of it positive.
