Would there be a need for Yahoo answers...?
...if people would only learn how to conduct an Internet search? I mean, honestly, I answer questions every single day that ten minutes of research on Google or Wikipedia would provide logical and concise answers to. I can understand asking questions that require some rumination or questions that have no "right" or "wrong" answer, but what is the point of asking something that you could look up yourself?
To help people who don't know how to find the answers they seek (or are too lazy to try), here are some helpful links:

Of course, there is the advantage that in doing these easy searches, I learn something. So even if the questioner is making me do his research for him, I gain.

If some people did a simple search on here, they wouldn't have to ask a question because they can view already resolved questions and have their answer.

It's more fun here smart@ss, dumb@ss, colloquial, foolish questions.
