    Which one do you think better?

    & I also want to know which one is bigger, which one has more answers and questions database>?

    When you download firefox it comes with a built-in tool bar for various company searches. Incidentally answers.com is there.
    I tried it that for some months but I am not at all impressed with them. I used to go to Yahoo Answers site... So now I have again started visiting it.

    I want your opinion about it..

    I voted for yahoo! answers, the usability experts behind it should be shifted to YSM so that YSM will be more user friendly too in future

    Answers.com is more authoritative and has more true experts. Yahoo! answers is more opened and regularly updated, but not always the best source of information. Personally I would use Answers.com if I need more in-depth information on a particular subject, or for research, while I will go for Yahoo! Answers for quick answers to simple questions.

    There's just one problem with Yahoo answers ... it seems to be full of stupidity and people trying to answer questions that they just wish to comment on, and not give an actual answer.

    Answers.com gives a ready made answer, in what I think is a more organized platform.
