WikiAnswers
Answers Corporation also owns WikiAnswers, a question and answer site that uses a wiki engine to improve questions and answers. It is the second-largest question and answer site after Yahoo! Answers.[citation needed] Answers has stated that it intends to bring the two sites much closer together in order to provide various types of answers to its visitors -- both encyclopedic and "community-based". This is also very helpful but very anoying.
