Killer Mobile App found: ChaCha baby!
June 17, 2008 – 10:20 pmYou’ll thank me for this:
Send a text message to 242242 (ChaCha) with any question that you want the answer to right now.
Examples: How many points is Kevin Garnett of the Celtics averaging this year? What is the line right before “folks linin up outside just to get down” in Loveshack? How much does a new iPhone cost? What is AAPL stock at and how much is it up for the year?
Seriously…anything that you think you could probably look up on the internet, but you don’t want to or can’t because you’re not at your computer.
Wait a minute…..
There’s your answer, delivered by ChaCha, for free.
They don’t rely on translation or search technology….instead, they rely on people who want to answer questions for 20 cents a piece. Your question comes in, it falls into a queue, a “ChaCha guide” (ya you can be one) takes it, searches for the answer and then sends you the result. You can even ask follow up questions like a normal conversation.
Sorry if this post sounds like a commercial…I have no affiliation with chacha (wish I did) other than the fact I’m sooooo impressed by the service and the value.
242242 is staying in my blackberry address book for quick mobile answers.
