A friend of mine told me about this one tonight and this one is really cool.

http://www.chacha.com

You sign up for a free "account." Its not really an account, but it lets you keep track of your questions online or ask questions online. And then, all you have to do is use your cell phone.

Yup. Just text any question you have to 242242 and within a few minutes here or there, you'll receive a text message with the reply. Tonight I asked anything from joke questions about woodchucks chucking wood, Starbucks Liquor market share versus Kahlua, and George Carlin's Seven Words (yes, they actually sent them back to me).

You can get weather, stockquotes, anything you ask. And it all depends on the time of day you're asking.

Just one thing to remember: standard text messaging rates apply. Also, you don't need an account to use ChaCha, just text away... The online account allows you to keep track of all of your questions in one place. :)

I just posted this on the front page but thought u all would love it!!

This is great!I asked,
"Hey, what is the web site heyitsfree.net all about?"They replied,
"It appears to be a site trying to find nice free product opportunities for it's customers."lol. i had to ask.... and it wasn't wrong..

The next one i asked was,
What is shyzer.com?"
They said,
Shyzer is a blog written by a 25 year old in Virginia, who is widely regarded as being "awesome!
OMG, it seriously said that...and lastly, I asked
"What is AdamJCohen.com"?They said, AdamJCohen.com is a political blog that talks about current issues facing the country".
I now love this!!

lol. this is addictive cause now i'm just asking it stupid stuff...i asked it, Who is Shaynon on Heyitsfree.net?

They said, Shaynon Grier, Female 27 years old, Pittsburgh PA. I found her profile on myspace.

Lol. at least they spelled my name right. They are also probablly like, why the heck does this girl keep asking us about hif, lol.

And the thing is too, one question might have different answers depending on when you ask because its real people answering them. What I didn't include in my post up there is that you can apply to be an answerer of questions too. You get paid $.20 a question for researching and answering them if selected. So its sorta cool and I've heard of people making like $25 in two to three hours while sitting in lecture halls in class. All around pretty cool, if you ask me...

A friend of mine is an agent for them. Hey are even based out of Indiana.

I haven't used them yet, but it looks fun!

SHe said the if they can't find an answer.... Like does so and so love me today.. They answer like a magic 8 ball......

She said she has had some odd questions come through......



Yeah you could make some money, but I think you get paid once a month or something.. I can't remember what she said.. Guess I better ask.
You also have to pass 3 tests to be an agent..

[adamcohen]

Yeah, it seems like it takes a while to make the money, but its still something cool to do if you have the time...
And their "magic 8 ball" style answers are pretty funny. Kept me entertained while I was in class. Definitely a fun little tool to use, imho.

this is great. much better than using a similar service that google offers. really its just search results.


for google its text anything to the word google, i use it for address searches on the go & movie times.

ps: i did a search of my name & its wrong. i am not a website dedicated to BDSM even though it sounded like me, lol... i would NEVER wear white tennis shoes with black pantyhose! geesh that lady is giving us Prudences a bad fashion name. then a search of who is prudence on hey its free is wrong as well, so i wondere where they get this information. can we reply with the word "wrong"? heh

[Goob]

Hahaha :laughup: I wonder what they'd say about me.

[elitts]

It is a pretty cool service. I work as a guide for them myself. And while I don't know about $25 in a couple of hours, I know some of the guides do like 1000+ answers per week.

And you can get paid monthly, or you can get a free debit card and get paid on demand, but they charge a $2 fee for each transfer to the debit card. So paying yourself $10 or $20 at a time wouldn't make much sense.

crazy things you ask and getr answers to...

Suddenly, a new limit approaches. You see it from a distance. What can it be? Alas! only 4 questions a week!
