Do you think using Yahoo Answers will make the world a better place?

Is it a fantastic communication device where ordinary people from all over the english speaking world can gain clearer understanding of each other or is just something to do with spare time?

    I think it's on its way to be something special. Like everything else in life, it is and will experience growing pains.

    In a way, you are right about the English-speaking world. While YA is available globally, only those who can read and write English can contribute.

    Yes, i do but,like anything in this world it has it's up's & down's.Some really don't like themselves and all they do is spread more hate.Then the up side is that really some of the things i've learn on here i actually wouldn't go and read a book on it or surf the net and here it's kinda a fun way to learn.

    It's not just the English-speaking world. It's the world.

    I think that for some people it will make a difference, and make their world a better place. People can have a since of belonging, a place to be heard. I think that it is great! It's amazing how much all of us despite our differences have in common.
