Does this service make society lazy, since we no longer need to research answers to my own questions?

Sometimes but not always. Sometimes a person cant find something they've been researching and they ask around to see if anybody knows any good sites.

Wow!   You really have the time to sit around and figure out who is answering which questions?   I thought I wasted enough time answering questions....couldn't even imagine tracking other people's questions/answers.

I'm so tired of lazy people asking for the answers to their homework. I don't mind helping people if they at least try to do it themselves. Kids these days want everything handed to them, they don't want to work for anything, it makes me so mad!

If you are refering to google answers, then yes, but with Yahoo! Answers you don't have to pay and anyone can answer your queries.

No. If I found Yahoo! Answers to be a waste of time, I wouldn't be here at all. I like being here because I find some good questions I can give honest and serious opinions/answers to and maybe I'll get to help someone with something they really had doubts about.

Yes...and they don't bother doing research and instead ask someone a question here.  If they are putting their answer in a paper, I think they should reference the person giving it on answers.  Then again, I think they should do their own research to insure that the answer here is the truth and not just someone's opinion.

Really, I think this is pretty basic stuff that you can find on your own.  You shouldnt trust random people on a question board to help you understand something so basic to what our nation is about.

No, because you have question and we have answers... they may be some really stupid answer for people who just want points, or just sincere answers for people that want to help others... no matter how anonymous it may be...

I don't know but it is really irritating. Especially when you give the information they are looking for, then someone who said something stupid gets the best answer because one a-hole picked it in voting.

Srry, too lazy to do my own homework let alone someone else's.

They probably do not want too many questions and answers in their system, as it may slow it down. Also, they don't want people making many pointless questions or answers.

Well, unless I need to do a research paper with confirmable and accurate sources, I don't go to a library.  In fact in the last year I have probably been to a library all but twice and I have no idea how to use a card catalog or the what is it, dewey decimal system which doesn't and never did make any sense.  If I need to look something up for myself 10 times out of 10 I will be doing a search on Google.  If I want to read the news, that's right, off to Google News I go.  I think it has made people lazy in the fact that they no longer have to go anywhere to get the information they need.\n\nI would say it makes finding answers much easier and I don't know about others but in some cases I end up learning something I didn't know and I became more interested in the subject and searched for more information about it.

Cuz if you answer your own question it is no longer a question, it's an answer.

Cool...I don't care either. But, if you're relying on answers from strangers to change your life...you may have a few problems...

I share your frustrations. I think it is an utter waste of webspace when people ask stupid questions when they can easily google the answers themselves.  Some questions are just intended to flame bigotry and hatred between users but most appalling of all is that it is a testament to the level of ignorance and intolerance we all experience today.

No, it's called "Yahoo Answers."
