Generally speaking, pursuant to these various embodiments, one provides ( 101 ) a push-to-ask protocol layer that comprises, at least in part, a question receiving function, an answer receiving function, a trust management function, and a propagation function. By one approach this propagation function is configured and arranged to determine the propagation of content as a function, at least in part, of trust information as is provided by the trust management function. This content can comprise, for example, at least one of a question as is provided by the question receiving function and/or an answer as is provided by the answer receiving function. This push-to-ask protocol layer may then be used ( 102 ) to facilitate the automated dissemination of a question as may be provided via a push-to-ask application to, for example, a social network as corresponds to a user of that push-to-ask application and to facilitate a return of at least one corresponding answer to that push-to-ask application.
