Answerbag is a compilation of human knowledge and experience. It is a universal, user-generated set of frequently-asked questions (FAQs). It is built and policed by its users, a worldwide information community, who make Answerbag an authoritative collection of questions and answers on any topic relevant today.

We welcome you to contribute your knowledge and experience so others can benefit from it. We all have different experiences and backgrounds, so everyone ends up with expertise in certain areas. Somewhere out there, someone could use your help, so why not pitch in?

The types of information you can contribute are:

- Questions & answers

- Glossary terms & definitions - each FAQ on the site has its own glossary. Users can contribute context-specific terms and their definitions

So, if you're an expert on something, - fishing, investing, croquet, or underwater basketweaving - please help someone out by contributing what you know!

Answerbag is a blast. It aims to help people with their personal problems, or just quench their curious minds. IT's helpful, insightful, and fun.

Here you'll meet new people, gain perspectives on life, and if you're in school, fail all your classes because you can't stay logged off for more than a minute.

Welcome aboard

- It's addictive, but I still have to make my A's and B's so I can grow up, get a good job so I can afford a computer to Answerbag on! (and all the necessities of life, of course, and growing my video game collection)

It makes Yahoo Answers look like a huge joke.

Niether paper nor plastic, Answerbag will still hold every piece of knowledge you can give it even if it's a piece of crap.

One day, you may see a flaming answerbag on your 'doorstep.' I suggest NOT stepping on it.
