Amazon launches site for questions
From Times Wire Services
Amazon.com Inc. has launched Askville, an information-sharing website where users can ask questions and answer queries from others.
The site, opened Thursday to all Amazon customers, has been in beta testing since December 2006. Similar services are offered by Yahoo Inc.’s Answers and other websites such as AnswerBank. Google Inc. also had an “Answers” section, which has been discontinued.
