ChaCha is a free service (apart from your standard text rate) where you can text ANY question and get the answer for FREE. The text number is 85852.
They were doing some marketing at the Leeds/Reading Festival apparently, they are similar to 118 and Ask Ollie and the like except you don't get charged for the answer.
As well as "wacky" questions and pub quiz type questions etc it is actually really useful for directions/cinema/bus times etc. I forgot tram times on Saturday and texted them on my way to the tram, usually I would have to have gone home and googled it, probably missing 3 trams in the process (yes I have an old fashioned phone!)
I usually frequent the relationship and weddings boards but hope this will be of use to someone!

Wrong section - should be in the low spend board as a standard text message isn't free. Sounds cool though, thanks
Thought for the day: each generation of mankind tends to hug the illusion of having reached the culmination of human achievement. Yet, as we scoff at our groping ancestors, so our descendants will surely scoff at us.

I just asked them a question and got a false answer, so they don't know truthful answers, that makes it pretty much useless as it mis-informs.0

OMG, how dare they not know this :rotfl:
Ask how they get the chocolate perfectly round on a malteaser :beer: (I would, but I don't have a mobile).

I am not sure. Anytime I have asked it a question there are no adverts in the reply, although it does say "text FUNMENU for more" and things like that.
And yes, sorry it should be in low spend can you tell I am new to this LOL
Am I able to move it or does someone else have to??
