There are two parts to Answers.com. One is WikiAnswers, the other is ReferenceAnswers.

ReferenceAnswers is an encyclopedic site with reference materials to every conceivable subject. To get information on a subject, there are two ways to access it. One is "answer tips". When on the wiki answers site, simply double click any word, and a bubble will appear with the definition or a link to more information. Very neat, try it!

If you have a definite subject in mind, type the subject into the green "ask bar" and make sure that the little blue dot above and to the right is marked "reference topics". Or you can mark "all sources" which will give a compendium of all sources that we can find on that subject.

Now if you want to know about the information on Wiki Answers, the rules are a bit different. You can ask a specific question and someone will answer it...eventually. Or you can browse the subject matter. Look to the left and you will see an entry called "browse categories". We have over six thousand categories and counting! When you are at the categories page, just type in your category. This will open up the category and you can browse it at will. Try it! It's fun.

Or, last but not least, you can type in a three word subject, and the system will give you similar questions. Remember to move the blue dot above the Ask box from 'all sources' to 'community q&a'.

Any of these methods are fun ways to explore "both halves" of Answers.com.
