What was the first question on Yahoo answers?
There are many people who want to know what the first question on Yahoo! Answers was. The answers given are usually that "this was the first test question" and "this was the first question from when public participation was available". Yahoo! Answers started alpha testing on June 28, 2005, and public participation began on December 7, 2005 Even though public participation began on December 7, 2005, Yahoo! Answers was still undergoing beta testing at the time. I think I'm gonna get a lot of flak for saying this, but Yahoo! Answers should celebrate it's anniversary every May 15, not December 7 like it always does. Yahoo! Answers announced general availability on May 15, 2006 (and also removed it's beta tag on the very same day). This was the first question asked after Yahoo! Answers announced general availability: "Wat is the meaning of HTTP?" (May 15, 2006) Every question prior to "Wat is the meaning of HTTP?" is considered a question from Yahoo! Answers' alpha and beta days. In other words, Yahoo! Answers was in it's prototype stages then. So any question asked during Yahoo! Answers' prototype stages should be considered separate from the questions asked after Yahoo! Answers announced general availability, even if public participation on Yahoo! Answers began on December 7, 2005. The alpha and beta version of Yahoo! Answers are not the final product. The alpha version of Yahoo! Answers lasted from June 28, 2005 to December 6, 2005. The beta version of Yahoo! Answers lasted from December 7, 2005 to May 14, 2006. The final version of Yahoo! Answers started, as I mentioned above, on May 15, 2006.

The only thing that stinks is that it knows your email account and if you're under thirteen it tells you you have to wait and to get around that you have to make a whole new account. :( More trouble than it's worth, but other than that, yes, Yahoo Answers is better than the website I'm typing on right now THat is right== == I do agree, but on yahoo answers you can'tanswer this question!****************************************************************Most of the people who like Yahoo Answers, are the people who are asking and answering questions there. Of course I'll have to disagree with you, since this Web-site has helped me out much more than Yahoo Answers, which is why I continue too answer questions here.

Why is Yahoo answers better than WikiAnswers?
* WikiAnswers' answers are condensed into the best available information, not a major discussion panel for each question. * Many of the contributors here are experts in, or have a large amount of experience with, the various categories they often answer in. * The questions and answers here are split into categories, subcategories, and even sub-subcategories, in order to make finding a particular subject easier. * Each category (etc.) also has its own Supervisor, someone who has demonstrated that they are extremely competent in that area of knowledge. The Supervisors keep track of vandalism, who is making good contributions and help those who need it most. * When a new question is asked, an automated system checks the whole database for similar questions or those containing the same keywords - this makes finding an answer, even when the wording is not identical, easier.
