The Best of Yahoo! Answers 2006

Originally, I was looking to take each of the special guest questions from Yahoo! Answers, link to the chosen answer, and provide my own answer. However, in trying to keep with the theme of the blog, I will take a different approach. Click here for the Best of Yahoo! Answers 2006.

Yahoo! Answers has been able to thrive while Google chose to shut down their version of QnA several weeks ago. Yahoo! provided a service for the masses, with almost no limits to what could be asked or what someone could answer. This free service targetted the general population and provided two platforms: one for inquiring minds with virtually no where else to turn, and another for those with either their own opinions or a wealth of knowledge that needed to be shared. Providing answers for a range of topics, from the practical “How do you clean a fishtank?” to something more abstract, like Dr. Deepak Chopra’s “What do you think happens to your soul when you die?. This is definitely a service that provides one of the services that is expected from the Internet. People can come to a single source to get an answer or several answers to a question from a wide range of sources. I definitely recommend reviewing the special guest questions. It just goes to show you, everyone has problems, and any of us can have the solution. All you have to do is ask.
