Crowdsourcing: if pain persists, see your doctor
I was discussing the future of advice with a friend yesterday, and their opinion was that services like Wordy would one day replace most professional services, and that products like Yahoo! Answers would one day be capable of acting as your primary source of general life advice.
Yeah, maybe, but I’m betting no. There’s a good reason why bad advice is free and good advice is expensive. Sometimes you get lucky and you can score some good advice for free, but you can waste a lot of time acting on bad advice before that happens.
In the meantime, this module in Yahoo! Answers on men’s health made me laugh.
Why Yahoo! Answers isn't my first source of medical advice
