Yes. I do. At least two of us do. I also use Answerbag. Answer Wikianswers is way better, I never use yahoo cuz u have to sign up for it. ---- Wiki Answers rules! Yahoo Answers sucks! I use yahoo answers more cos it's easier to navigate there. it is user friendlier.
Yahoo is a web portal containing links to more topics, e-mail, web search, news, web pages, answers, etc.. WikiAnswers is only designed to handle answers, but is better designed, and less ad cluttered. It is subjective. WikiAnswers is probably better than Yahoo Answers; Yahoo as a whole is more useful.
No way! WikiAnswers is a whole lot more fun! (Opinion, please don't get mad) There are SPAs, Supervisors, WITs, et cetera, that Yahoo! doesn't have.
(Yahoo Answers displays more than one answer and the contributor of each answer.) WikiAnswers is NOT Yahoo Answers, they are two completely different sites with different aims and reliability. Yahoo Answers is mainly a community site to air varying input on a range of topics, not provide the direct and specific answer to a question. For opinion answers, there are many sites. For factual or experience-derived answers, there are comparatively few with the scope of WikiAnswers.
Because, Wikianswers is more likely to give you the right answer. On Yahoo anyone can post anything!
WikiAnswers, actually, is more popular. Recently, WikiAnswers has surpassed Yahoo! in visitors (WikiAnswers was already superior quality wise).View the related link below, and view the second graph in the related link to see why WikiAnswers is more popular.
They are both good, but it depends upon what you are looking for. WikiAnswers is better if you want answers from a dictionary or encyclopedia or something. Yahoo!Answers is better if you want answers for something else random or about relationships or something. You can also edit your question more on Yahoo! Answers, and get points for answering questions. ^ if wikianswers were just about dictionaries etc, whats with the categories?
Some more Q&A sites, although not nearly as productive, attractive, growing, and fantastic as WikiAnswers, are Mahalo Answers and LinkedIn Answers.
Yahoo Answers is better: Question Structure WikiAnswers is designed more to answer universal and relatively simple one line questions. Yahoo answers can answer more complicated and personalized questions. Audience Yahoo currently has a wider community who comes to both ask and answer questions. As Yahoo is a web portal, people who come to Yahoo for other things (eg. web search, e-mail or news) may also find themselves asking or answering questions. The personal nature of Yahoo attracts more people to Yahoo. WikiAnswers has a smaller user base, and is not tied to a major portal. Answers On WikiAnswers, answers tend to be relatively better. Answers can evolve over time, as opposed to only having to be entered within a few days of the initial question. Yahoo Answers has much more false/unhelpful answers, and much more spam. User Powers On Yahoo Answers, every user is treated equally in terms of powers, but there are limits to how much one can do each day depending on the level they are at. One vote counts as one vote. On Wiki Answers, supervisor powers trump regular users. Previewing Answers On Yahoo Answers, you can preview your answer; on Wiki Answers, you can not.
