What do you think, how many questions should be listed on the front page? If you are looking at the site - how likely are you to scroll all the way down?

Maybe a silly question, but the size of page affects the load time, especially on a slow network, so it would be nice to optimize the default. What do you think?

How about auto-loading more results when users scroll to the bottom of the page? Here's an example if you're not sure what I mean.

I get annoyed when it's a small number like 10. I would suggest a minimum of 25

This is a user-preference question. Some people like to buy square cars, some don't like to look at them.
