    Default People With Cell Phones...I have your answer.

    TO EVERYTHING.

    Anyway, people have posted about this before, but it seems like when I bring it up, people are still asking questions about it.

    So, I give to you (again) ChaCha!

    Text:242242
    Call: 18002chacha


    Now, this isn't like KGB (you have to pay for KGB ) all that applies is your standard text or call fees. Let me say...if you pay for texts, don't go crazy with this. They will usually send 2 (or if you call, 3) messages. You get a "we have your question and we are working on it" and your answer. Unless you call, then they tell you exactly what they heard you say.

    Anyway, this is really awesome for when you are sitting around with friends, and end up trying to think of "the name of that dude in X movie!". You can just text ChaCha and get your answer within a few minutes...usually in under a minute even.

    Its even awesome to do just when you are bored. You can ask them to tell you a racist joke, or ask them about the weather. You can try to mess with them and ask "what is my name" or some asshatted question they could never figure out.

    Anywayyyyyyyyy, I suggest you call, rather than text. Sometimes when you text it will say "you are out of texts for this week", but you have an unlimited number of calls.







    Oh, guys...did you know Steven Petrosino drank 1 liter of beer (33 ounces) in 1.3 seconds on June 22, 1977 at the Gingerbreadman in Carlise, PA?

    Well you only get limited answers per week. To get unlimited answers, you have to pay. I use it all the time though.

    Probably sell your number to marketing firms and/or send marketing texts to your mobile.

    I'm assuming this doesn't work in the UK, though? I'd try it but I spent the last of my credit ringing my network provider. I have to applaud their business strategy.

    You don't have to.

    They have advertisements in the text messages that they send you.

    I.e. You ask what them a question

    You get
