I love Cha Cha. It is listed as a Web2 tool. I have never used the ChaCha guide
becuase anyone can apply to be a guide. Just fill out an application.Whoever they
choose to be an expert, is. Doesn't sound so great, huh? Because anyone can be a
guide, I just tell my kids it isn't reliable to use the guide search.
I love the search, though. Images is so easy to use. Seems like a lot of
advertisement on this search engine. (Someone has to pay for it, I guess)

Subject: [LM_NET] Cha Cha Website
Has anyone encountered students using Cha Cha? I thought I was up on the
newest tech tricks but I hadn't seen this one before. Apparently there are
live people sitting around waiting to respond to research questions. Their
website didn't shed too much light on who these "experts" are. Anyone have
insight? Opinions? I can post a hit or we could keep the discussion on
list.
