  We review this new search engine briefly on this week’s show. An interesting concept that acts more like Yahoo! Answers than Google but sure enough, it works.
  

  “A new internet search engine, ChaCha, has hit the web, promising results more relevant than even Google.While Google relies on highly complex algorithms to give responses to queries, ChaCha, in addition to a traditional computer-based search, provides the option of having a human guide assist with any query.According to one of the human “guides”, LindaS, there are thousands like her online at all hours of the day, each working from home.”
