Google Acquires Aardvark – Will it Be Integrated into Buzz?
Aardvark is a free service I’ve been using for a while now that lets you ask questions and finds people who can answer them… I’ve used it to ask questions about food, cars, soldering, and baby issues. It’s integrated into Google Chat and Gmail, so I’m used to using it with Google products… and they’ve been in the spotlight at recent tech conferences, so it only make sense that Google has acquired them.
I will update my prior post regarding Buzz predictions, as I believe Aardvark functionality will be merged with Buzz eventually.

UPDATE: Aardvark is listed as an application in Google Labs but is currently only a static page with a link to the Aardvark website.

I’ve never heard of this service. Is it any good?
Who answers the questions?

It is especially great for any nerdy database questions and the like. I think you’d like it.

People who have marked fields of expertise relevant to your question answer it.
