Perhaps, Yahoo should start chargin money to ask and answer.?

Already costs a person points for asking a question so I guess that is a surcharge of sorts.  But as far as winning for answers I think a nice cash prize would be more appreciated than a date with a hottie.  Sure lots of husbands and wifes may have a problem with their partner winning a date with a beauty from the opposite sex.

I think Yahoo is making money off from this. It's all part of marketing tricks. Concept here is interaction and free apply of individual thoughts and advertise accordingly. If you go to Q&A search and type certain word... let's say "sex" for test. It would show all the Q&A related to "sex" as well as advertise on right side. So basically Yahoo is trying to increase it's exposure for more income.

Maybe just another cool, community site where users can exchange information freely. Ultimately, they may try to recuperate costs with some sponsored links, but hopefully that won't interfere with the product and usability.

Excellent idea!\n\nIf they need any money to get this project rolling, let me know where to send my check.\n\n.

Hopefully never.  This would mean that they would probably charge people to ask questions.  In turn people would stop asking questions and then no one would make money anyway.

Let yahoo reintroduce it. It will give a more responsible platform for exchange of ideas as well as friendship.

You can anticipate the quality of both the questions and the answers improving over time; partly as the "novelty" factor wears off and partly as people who aren't earning points get bored from the lack of positive feedback and go away.  At some point the "search" function of the site should become more useful than the "ask" function.  (At least, this is how I think Yahoo expects it to go.)

No, sorry, no money is involved. Had that been the case, many people may have gotten rich for their wealthy contributions to the site. However, it is true that you get a thank you from Yahoo! but it is a thank you that you merely imagine to yourself.\n\nOverall, your reward is simply the thought that you may have enlightened someone's day by helping them in their question.
