Yahoo Answers

Don't get the entire point of this service after using it for about 2 months. For the most part people ask questions that are easily googleable and/or simply want their homework done (essay written, problem solved etc).

Providing a quality answer takes time, and with just points for helpful responses, I didn't see any sense in sticking with that service.

Sometimes you get very good answers and other times you can't believe what the heck you are reading.

I get excellent answers to my questions. It is good for emailing, and good search browser. I prefer to over using ask.com, it is a lot better then that. And it is just as good as using Google as a search browser.

I like the feedback mechanism and the crowds reply to a certain question. However, at some point some of the answers are motivated by some interested individuals.

Most of the time, it is a marketing campaign or a sales pitch.

Though some Yahoo answers are just misleading, it is a good source to gather some information. Fairly recommend it.

Hit or a miss. Some questions are funny, serious or bizzare. The same really applies for their answers as well. More often then not I feel that people on yahoo answers are either full of it or they don't know their butt from a hole in the ground. Take what people say with a grain of salt.
