Enter a query and click "Search With Guide".

This is so much more fun than regular searching! Here's one of my sessions:

andys: Welcome to ChaCha!
You: Hello Andy
andys: hello
You: Do you know Andy McCoy?
andys: im afraid not
You: Oh, okay
You: Can you help with my search?
andys: so youre looking for due south dvd release dates preferably with finnish subtitles?
You: Definitely WITH Finnish subtitles.
andys: hmm ok
andys: let me see what i can find
You: ok
andys: im not finding much info about future releases
You: oh
You: Alright
You: Thank you for your assistance.
andys: im still trying som elinks
You: ok
andys: thats the company that released the initial dvd's
andys: you could try emailing them and asking what their plans are
You: Yes, I have the first season from Alliance Atlantis, it lacks Finnish subtitles though.
You: (Obviously it wouldn't have Finnish subtitles as it's the Canadian version)
You: That's a good idea.
andys: yeah i think emailing the compnay and asking if there will ever be an international release with more subtitles may be a good plan
andys: theres not much about future releases
You: yes
You: Do you get a lot of people searching for pornographic material?
andys: haha yeah
You: figured as much
andys: or just random swears or offensive words
andys: its kind of amusing but it definitely gets annoying
andys: and i know alot of other guides dont tolerate it
You: I feel sorry for you, there must be a lot of abusers. :/
andys: haha i dont really mind
andys: i can end it at anytime
You: Oh yeah.
You: Anyway, thank you for the help, I will give you a "great" rating.
andys: i just feel sorry for the people who think theyre being funny or original
andys: no problem. good luck finding some info!
andys: Please RATE ME. Thanks for using ChaCha.

I was contemplating doing this for fun. I know a few friends who are doing it, and they say it's easy money. They don't accept applicants often though.

That would be weird.

The other day a website opened up a chatbox after I ordered something and a customer service person was trying to sell me stuff!!!

I wonder of all the search requests, how many of them are just for jest.

You: Hello
dawnh: Hello
You: How are you today?
dawnh: Im good thanks
You: Now, I've got a really difficult question.
dawnh: Ok
You: Most 3DSMax tutorials are very expensive.
You: Most free tutorials aren't in video format.
You: Actually, that site seems good.
dawnh: Is there anything else on this topic I can find for you today?
You: I only have one other question: Do you have any rules you have to follow if someone requests illegal materials?
You: So if someone said "A crack for Sims 2"
dawnh: Yes we do
dawnh: not allow to look up illegal stuff
You: That's good. I appreciate your proper spelling. I found my last guide to be odd, with the poor spelling and grammar.
dawnh: Thanks
You: Anyway, thanks a lot.
dawnh: Thanks for using CHA CHA
You: Have a nice day.
dawnh: Have great day also

Are you kidding? I got in. I was only doing it while I was unemployed, but now that I have another (real) job, I'm going to separate myself from them.

Besides, 4chan and 7chan like to harass us constantly. It's entertaining, sometimes.

CandaceN: Okay one moment please
You: It seems to be a bit hush-hush at the moment
CandaceN: Okay, I will see what I can find for you
You: Thanks
CandaceN: I included part of the site as the description under the link
You: Are you sure that's accurate?
CandaceN: I'm looking through some more pages right now
You: I heard once Prey was out, DNF was soon to follow
CandaceN: Here is another site
CandaceN: saying that there isn't information available at this time
You: Ah, figures
You: well, thanks for your help
CandaceN: You're welcome
CandaceN: I am still searching right now
You: Whew, I feel sorry for anyone that has Take-Two stock
CandaceN: That page also says the release date is TBA
CandaceN: Would you like me to transfer you to someone that may be able to find more information?
CandaceN: Or are these results sufficient?
You: These results are good
CandaceN: Thanks and have a great evening!
You: I think anything else would just be rumor

I asked about turntables and they transferred me to a "home appliances" expert.

She had no idea what I was talking about. It was sad.

7chan has an /i/nvasion board (harassing people via internet.)

on 4chan, starting an invasion or "raid" is a bannable offense.

12chan specializes in "jailbait" prons, which is bannable on the previous 2 mentions.

Check for /b/ day on wikipedia.
