ChaCha Blog

Welcome to the Official ChaCha Blog! This blog will be a place to read about what’s going on at ChaCha, any updates or news we have for you, ChaCha success stories, etc. I’ll be updating it often, and we’ll occasionally have Guest entries from ChaCha’s creator and CEO Scott Jones and President Brad Bostic.

Enough with the introductions, lets get to the good stuff!

Wow! What a great month this has been! Since launching on Sept 1st, we have had an overwhelming response and want to thank each and every one of you for your comments and support. And a special thank you to our wonderful guides who are working so hard at providing users with the very best search experience they possibly can. We are pleased to report that we now have more than 7000 guides signed up to work with us. Yay, ChaCha Underground! We look forward to doubling that number by the end of next month (and quadrupling it by the end of the year!)

All those new Guides have to come from you, so make sure you’re giving your invitations to the people you know will be great Guides!

We have to give a special shout out to three of our top Guides this month -

1. Osha B - 744 Searches
2. Alyssa B - 618 Searches
3. Bryan T - 464 Searches

Osha, Alyssa, and Bryan have logged more hours, searched more queries and have received the highest rankings of any Guides! Way to go super rockstar Guides! Keep up the great ChaCha-ing!

Thank you to all of the people who talked so highly about us on the recent Wired News blog (Monkey Bites) More of you came to visit us after that story than even our USA Today piece. Thanks!

We hope you’ll check back and ChaCha with us often. This experiment is a tricky one and has lots of moving parts, but the system is improving every day thanks to your searches and your feedback. Keep them coming!
