Too lazy to search? Let ChaCha be your guide

The Web is a big, scary place and finding things can be quite difficult. And really, who has time to wade through the thousands of search results returned by Google, Yahoo or Dogpile? Now, you can let ChaCha be your guide. As Jon Brodkin reports, ChaCha “provides searchers a personal human guide who communicates with them in an instant-messaging chat room and does the searching, so ChaCha visitors don’t have to. (Cha means ‘search’ in Chinese.)” Here at Network World, we’ve got our own search Sherpa. Pose question to the editorial staff via e-mail, and Adam Gaffin (of Compendium fame) will instantly have an answer with extensive linking. Maybe Adam should start charging us.
