Signed onto this one about four years ago, when it was taken seriously - then people who I got to know gave it up, and, let's say the more nastier took over. I was 'kicked off' for 'upsetting' a couple of the worst bullies last year. Take time out to look at 'Current Events' at certain times of the day - mostly late evening (after the soap operas). The rest of Yahoo! Answers still has bite - but 'CE' reminds me of a sort of school the daily papers love to scare the British public about now and then. Mouthy beings who have developed comical waves of hate - and can use it without any comebacks.

If you're not familiar with Yahoo answers (although you should be, since it clogs up Google searches like a sticky mould) it's a simple concept. People ask questions. People answer them. And you get points. My main problem - and it's a big one - is the appalling answers. I've noticed the quality of answers tends to vary by the type of question. Questions regarding politics, history or race tend to be answered with immense stupidity whereas questions about technology, computers and maths tend to be answered accurately.

I have been on yahoo answers for a few months now, and I have to say that it is really fun. I like to share my expertise about topics with people that are looking for answers. Yahoo answers has two types of people: Serious members and joksters. There are members on there that post valid questions, and then there are people that post ridiculous questions.

The point of this website is that you people ask questions and other people answer them. This site often appears near the top of Google if you search a question. Questions are normally answered and probably about half of the answers are useful. However some people write things like "I don`t know" and you just wonder what is the point! I think people earn points like on Ciao. They don`t really do anything but just show you are more helpful or experienced or whatever. I think you can`t ask a question if you don`t have enough points which means people answer uselessly just to get enough points to ask a question. You can also browse answered ...  Read the complete review
