Not too long ago, services like GOOG-411, 118 118 and AQA used actual humans to answer questions with witty responses and encyclopedic knowledge. Today’s search engines could learn something.
I remember texting chacha if every rose has its thorn, to which they would respond that according to the 1988 song released by Poison, every rose does have its thorn.
I can’t remember so many things from that part of my life, why that stuck, no idea.
I wasn’t born till 89, so not my era either. But music comes from all eras. I think I spent half yesterday with Ain’t No Sunshine stuck in my head. That was 71? I think
I didn’t even know about these services. It’s fascinating they were relevant for about ten years only. What a good read.
I used SMS google search and SMS ChaCha, they were great at a time when mobile data was super expensive.

That’s a fantastic song though. I didn’t grow up in that era, but it’s most of what I listen to these days.

Great song to have stuck in your head
2 validations in a row. It’s 9:41am here. It’s going to be a good day. I hope you have a great one as well!
Totally forgot about ChaCha. Those were the days.
I had heard of them but had no idea there were so many of them or that they were so successful
