Would you consider Yahoo Answers as a social-networking website? - ­­ - 11-27-2012 06:32 AM While Yahoo Answer's mission statement is to be a means for people to ask and answer questions, I feel as though it's become more than that. People, mainly teenagers, are using Yahoo Answers as a means to make friends, socialize, etc. As it pertains to popularity, where would rank Yahoo Answers among the likes of Twitter and Facebook? @Holy Smokes- Can you justify your answer? I never seen anyone socialize or chat via Google. - Holy Smokes =) - 11-27-2012 06:40 AM ..uhhhh not at all. If Y!A is a social networking site, then so is Google. - KoolKid - 11-27-2012 06:40 AM Hahahah. I see it, but like I don't like befriending strangers online, it's not my thing, so I kinda drift away from that aspect of Yahoo Answers, I get on here, answer questions, and log off. Which I think is what it's meant for. I'm not saying that there aren't cool people on here, it's just not for me. But I think Yahoo Answers is really unlike Facebook/Twitter, because even if it resembles a social networking site, at the end of the day, it's not. So I don't know how it would rate against them. - Rihanna - 11-27-2012 06:40 AM LOL. - faithfulshop379 - 11-27-2012 06:40 AM Only in Pulls & Surveys I would say it's more of a social network, but other places besides here is mostly used for asking legit questions and receiving a logical answer. - ρɦℓ;☮❀❤ - 11-27-2012 06:40 AM nope. - shooting star - 11-27-2012 06:40 AM no,i think it's bing,face book,twitter,google
