Yahoo Answers Announces 10 Millionth Answer

Posted on May 22, 2006

Yahoo AnswersYahoo has announced, here and here, that its Yahoo Answers service now has over 10 million answers posted by users.
At around 5:30 am on Sunday, May 7th, almost precisely five months since we launched, a user posted the 10 millionth answer on the service. This is a big day for us, and we've decided to celebrate by coming out of beta, and beginning the integration of Answers into our core search services.

Do a search on Yahoo! and you'll see how questions and answers are being surfaced within results. Every day, someone out there has a question, and someone out there knows the answer and gives it for free. Just because helping someone by sharing what you know is a reward in itself.

People can both ask questions and answer questions on Yahoo Answers. You can read a faq to learn more about the service. Yahoo Answers has people like Richard who have answered over 5,000 questions. Yahoo Answers competes with other answer services and information websites like Google Answers and Answers.com.
