possible future job opportunities for us savvy Gen-Y'ers....It's called ChaCha. Basically, it's just another search engine, but it employs "guides" which you can chat with and who will guide you to your desired results. It's like technical support for anything you want...Very cool stuff...They've got like 2500 guides right now but, after inquiring about job opportunities with one of their guides, I was able to get on a list of future invites, which the current guides will use to recruit others....5 to 10 bucks an hour, with immeadient payment no less....

Here's
Wired's story about it...very cool stuff....I also didn't know that netscape and yahoo will pay you for stuff too...hmm...

I probably won't use it much...it's too hard to type. Honestly, the ease of typing "google" is what switched me to Google, from Metacrawler.

I said TYPING, not saying...google is a lot easier to type that chacha...that repeating cha thing lends itself to lots of typos when typing fast.

Well, despite the fact that you can't search for things that you wouldn't want a stranger knowing you're searching for, I still think this kind of service is going to come in really handy...I hope I get a job as a guide too...I filled out an application, but they're only in alpha, so it may be a while...

Gotta say though, I feel kind of lazy searching this way....."Hey, look this up for me"...
