I’ve recently come across a fascinating attention economy knows as Yahoo! Answers. It’s a place where you can log on and ask questions. Or answer questions. Or rate other people’s answers. “What kind of questions can I ask?” you wonder. That’s a great question. You should log in and see what kind of questions other people are asking. I’ve been addicted to this service all week now. For joining, you get 100 points. Every question you ask costs you 5 points. Every questions you answer garners you 2 points, and when your answer is chosen as the best answer to a question, you earn 10 points. When you earn a certain amount of points, you get….. something. I don’t know what the something is yet, but I reached level 2, and Yahoo! assures me that there’s something special headed my way. When I reached level 2 without a significant reward, I kind of gave up on this as an obsession. I thought I’d come back to daily blogging instead. Check out Yahoo Answers anyway; it’ll be worth your time.
