Ever Heard of Cha Cha?

I found out about it online, a way to make money by answering questions that people text into ChaCha (242 242).

I logged in and asked to become a guide. Then I had to read some training material and take several tests. The first test was a basics on ChaCha. The next was a typing test, speed and accuracy of course. Once I passed those tests I took the Simulator test where I answered mock questions. It was so fun.

I found out today that I am now an official ChaCha Guide. I make a whopping .20 cents per answer, so the possibilities of becoming rich, or even well off, are nil! But I have been having fun so far.

The questions today so far were: What are the chances that Heath Ledger would win a posthumous Academy Award? Are there any rumors about the Knicks? What should I do? Does the Mennen have free skate day tomorrow in Morristown, NJ?

See, lots of variety, and I learn something new.

The latest thing I learned was that "pomology" is the study of fruit and fruit trees.

Dude! You totally made a whole dollar on those questions! What was your answer to "What should I do?"

I think it is so funny that you are a ChaCha guide. Dane just found out about this a few weeks ago and has been texting ChaCha with all of his random questions. I am glad to know that his random efforts might actually be doing so good to good people like you!

How about I just e-mail you my questions and i'll pay you for each? That way, you'll be sure to get the money and I'll know the source is good. Abbie already has her yearly income figured out.

That is the craziest thing I have ever heard of......but I kind of want to try it out. I feel the need to "test" the system and see if they (I guess that means you as well) have all the answers. What to ask...........?

what if you don't know the answers? do you just skip them? i'm going to come up with some random questions and see if you get to answer them. i'll tell you later which ones were mine.
