Week 8 - Adventure

Answering questions on Yahoo!7 Answers.

I logged in using my Yahoo ID and had the option of electing a different UserID for this exercise - I decided to use the same UserID as my wikipedia ID and I answered 5 questions - very basic questions. I also checked out the Travel category and narrowed it to Canada as I'll be there in a few days (not long now!) - I could see people getting carried away with just answering questions all day (even Yahoo!7 encourages it by the comment "You're on a roll, how about...") or words to that effect....I'm not sure whether librarians could 'slam' this service as some of the questions aren't necessarily searching for facts, but rather for opinions - but it's still a great social networking tool!!!!
