Got a question? Yahoo now invites you to ask the Internet. Dubbed Yahoo Answers, the company reckons that sometimes it’s hard to find an exact answer by searching it with a search engine. Real people with logical thinking are still better than the search engine with the best algorithm when it comes to answering certain questions.
Unlike Google Answers which depends on a group of selected people to answer your questions, Yahoo Answers is currently open to anyone with a Yahoo account to ask or to answer a question. There is currently no option of setting a price for a question like Google Answers.
It’s interesting to learn that Yahoo has launched a similar service in Taiwan before. Known as Yahoo Kimo Knowledge+, the service is popular and has accumulated a total of 3 million questions.
