Why ask questions that google can answer?
Not having a go at anyone who wants to ask questions on yahoo answers and enjoy answering questions but there some questions on Yahoo answers that are so easily answered by Google or similar search engines
I can appreciate the forum that it produces and that a more in depth answer may be required but some questions are so easy that it seems like they are asking a question for the sake of it and I don't get that personally
So first of all
Why?
Do you? if so why?
Again I am not having a go so no offensive remarks please as these will be reported

I see what you getting at :D

If you are about to go out and do something, it's so much easier to just post the question, go out and do whatever it is you need to do, and then come back, and the answers are there for you. Sometimes it doesn't take two seconds to search something on Google; sometimes it can take ten minutes, or thirty minutes, or even two hours. It depends on the question. You're right; some can be found on Google in a matter of seconds, but if you're about to leave, and want to know something, wouldn't it be easier to take two seconds, post a question, leave and then come back to the answers? Do you see where I'm getting at?
