About a few weeks ago, I discovered something called Yahoo! Answers (Y! Answers) when on the Gahoo!Yoogle site. It is extremely neat!
If you have a Yahoo! ID, you can earn points in Yahoo! Answers. 100 points for joining and you get up to level 5, well level 7 actually but level 5, 6 and 7 are the same. I'm at level 2 right now. You use 5 points for askign questions and 1 point for voting and rating answers. 2 points if you answer a question and 10 points for getting a best answer. The link is: http://ca.answers.yahoo.com. Check it out!

Google Answers costs money. Yahoo! Answers is free and is community based. You get stuff from Yahoo! Answers, nothing from Google.
Both services have similar purposes but use different procedures to get the result. |

I agree with you, and i already knew that, but that does not forbid me to say the truth, yahoo! company is copying a lot of things from google labs, and who does not see it is blind, or does not want to see it.
