Yes, WikiAnswers is currently the largest Q & A site with over 5 million contributors.
Wikianswers is the best Q&A site on the internet. So it safe to say that yes, wikianswers is excellent to find answers to questions.
If you mean 'Does the Internet have better answers than WikiAnswers?', then that question depends on what type of question you are talking about. The Internet may have some better answers to questions than WikiAnswers, but I would highly recomend WikiAnswers because WikiAnswers is a Q & A site, (Questions and Answers) but the Internet is not. So if your wondering about which one is better, the answer is WikiAnswers. Hope I answered your question!
Yes, WikiAnswers is leading Q&A site on the internet and is a safe and secure website. In 2010, it had over 45 million unique users from the US.
No, I think the Internet would be a worse place without WikiAnswers. As of June 15, 2011, there are 6,521,541 registered members. This obviously attests to something good about the site!
WikiAnswers owner Chris Whitten started the site (as FAQ Farm), but WikiAnswers is "authored" by its community of users. As WikiAnswers Contributors, we ask and answer each other's questions. You might say, "We the people of the Internet are the authors of this site." Most of the users of WikiAnswers are dedicated to building and improving the site.
No. Some people do use WikiAnswers to research their homework and others can find their question on the site, but this is no different to using any other site on the Internet to find information; WikiAnswers just makes it easier to find a specific and simple answer.
WikiAnswers is on the internet, therefore, you cannot get WikiAnswers out of your desktop because it isn't on your desktop, but on the internet.
You cannot download the WikiAnswers database. One reason for this is because WikiAnswers is solely an internet resource, and you must use the internet to access WikiAnswers. If you didn't have to use the internet for WikiAnswers, WikiAnswers would not exist.
WikiAnswers started out as another random site on the internet, called "FAQ Farm". It was a small site dedicated to answering Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs). Then, FAQ Farm sold itself to Answers.com, and became the sister site to Answers.com, and used the Wiki style of web pages, and became known as the WikiAnswers we know and love today. === ===
Yes, it is popular, but it isn't as correct as if you were to look it up on the internet most of the time.
Yes, the WikiAnswers site is very user-friendly.
