Matt Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 Here's a handy site I have beeen using lately. Its called http://www.brainboost.com/ . It is basically what AskJeeves was supposed to be. You type in a question, and it spits out an answer! It is also usually right on! Give it a spin. Matt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDoors Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 (edited) OH MY GOD. I have been ticked about Ask Jeeves losing it's uniqueness and just being yet-another-search-with-sponsored-links-that-have-nothing-to-do-with-what-I'm-looking-for-engine (whew!). So far, and with the test questions that came to mind, BrainBoost works like AJ used to: Ask a question and THE answers come up. Now if I could just remember the dozen or so questions I've had recently that would really have benefitted from such a service. (Ooo! I know, "Why can't I remember anything? ) " Brainboost is not a chatbot. It was designed to answer questions which are factual in nature" OK, it knows "why can't I remember anything" isn't a valid inquiry (even resorting to suggesting sites and products that can "boost" my memory, I think ... yes, I think I should be a little insulted -- Did it just call me stupid? ).
