Last week, I wrote about a new, free service called
answers.com
that offers ‘1-click answers to 1 million topics at your
fingertips.’ Since the article was published, I’ve received a number
of positive e-mails.

Hi Dennis, love your columns!

I just wanted to comment on your latest recommendation  answers.com) - it truly is the cats meow! It is simply one of the best all around ‘answer’ programs around today. It eliminates probably three or four (or more!) other resources for the same type of info.

The ease of the downloaded portion of the site is super. I
installed it immediately on the PC, and my ten-year old uses it to
assist her when looking up things for school or just to learn on her
own. She absolutely loves it!

Thanks again, Dennis, and keep up your invaluable work!

Recently, my father was diagnosed with prostate cancer. I
had been scouring the Internet for anything I could find
pertaining to his illness, but was discouraged by all the
irrelevant pages and ‘page not found’ errors.

After I read your article on answers.com, I decided to give
it a try. Let me tell you - I was completely amazed!
 Answers.com immediately directed me to pages where I was able to
find the answers I was looking for. I played around with the
site for a while after that to see just how useful it really
was, and found that it was able to take me to every place I
needed to find answers for what I was seeking.

I just wanted to say thank you for putting this information on
your site for all of us readers out here. I really do enjoy your
newsletter and am grateful for all your hard work on making things
better for all of us out here in cyber-world!
