Yahoo users will get paid in bitcoin for best answers

Misleading title. I thought this was actually implemented on the Yahoo! Answers site.
In any case, it's a neat concept, but it doesn't look like there's a lot of activity at this point.

A new service allows users to post questions and pay Bitcoin to people who submit the best answers.

Sounds like the whole idea of free help gets ruined by this, don't you think?

I remember a site like this when i first stated to get involved in bitcoin, this was during the run up to $266 on gox.  It was doing well while it pays people.  If there is no money people just stop posting on new sites.   The network effect is a bitch.

OMG, the reward is too small. I think it just like faucet expect you're really can make the best answers

[panagot]

The reward is being determined by the user. How much he is willing to tip someone for an information he would like to know.

Minimum is 0.0001 BTC with no limit to how much he is willing to give as a reward.

There isn't any voting system nor any upvote or likes for the answers.

The user that putted the question decides to whom to give the reward.

Maybe it could work out good eventually.  For people who know very decent information on certain subjects rewards could be higher.  Imagine like people knowing technical or medical information that would otherwise take the asker weeks to find out via their own searching.
