Google ANSWERS discontinued!!!!

*googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/11/adieu-to-google-answers.html

This is what Google has to say about retirement.....

“Google is a company fuelled by innovation, which to us means trying lots of new things all the time - and sometimes it means reconsidering our goals for a product.”

It said: “Google Answers was a great experiment which provided us with a lot of material for developing future products to serve our users.

“We'll continue to look for new ways to improve the search experience and to connect people to the information they want.”

But some users of the site have been venting their frustration that Google is ending its Q&A service and a petition is currently doing the rounds in a last-ditch attempt to reverse the decision.

A Google spokesperson told El Reg that the decision to close Google Answers was not motivated by financial concerns but that the site had simply served its purpose and that it was time to move on.

He added, “we don’t have an awful lot to say other than that really.”

It was only a experiment. It wont exist anymore. Many people were just misusing google answers.
