ChaCha will answer virtually anything - -- I guide, so I know. We answer teenage stuff, but all kinds of things about the economy, current events. Its fun guiding because you get a sense of what's going on in the minds of people.

I hope they do well because its such a great service. Ads are getting more relevant and valuable too.

Amazing, they pulli in 30 MIL and cut guide pay and service quality almost immediately after. Are we sure this business isn't heading into freefall making it's bread and butter as a free teen age sex question answering service?

Hi Camille,

Thanks for the link. The company has since confirmed that they actually closed the $30 million Series C round a while ago.
