Have you ever had a question that you just didn't know who to ask? There's a new website designed to help you.
Aardvark is a new kind of tool that lets you tap into the knowledge and experience of friends and friends-of-friends. Think of it as a crowd-sourced (or human powered) knowledge engine. However, instead of just storing the answers, it tries to figure-out who to ask your question to in your network of contacts.
Send Aardvark a question (from the web, email, Twitter, IM, or iPhone) and you’ll get a quick, helpful response.
I was a little skeptical; however, when I tried it, I got good answers very quickly. Finally, a business use for social networks (other than marketing).
I recommend that you give it a try.
