So; when someone told me about this, I thought, right this has to be fake... but people actually do search for you! Its amazing! I would like to become a guide and earn the $5-$10 per search, however you need to be invited.

Scott Jones and Brad Bostic, two dynamic entrepreneurs who were not satisfied with millions of irrelevant search results provided by first generation search engines, believed a better experience could be created by tapping into human intelligence. Since starting ChaCha, they have been hard at work with the ChaCha team to create:
* A smart search engine that "learns" by tapping into human intelligence so its results are always improving * A place to find exactly what you're looking for instantly * Help from people who are knowledgeable about the very thing you are looking for when instant results don't have the answer
Now, It works really well, if a little slow, giving you the most relevant search results with a live chat to your guide! They provide human approved results, filtering out annoying link farms; come to think of it, this has loads of potential and could be the next generation of search engines, based around a community, supported on advertising. Google, just as youtube caught up with the video revenue trend, will have to catch up with this! Oh, and at least it doesn't have a stereotypical web 2.0 design lol.
Now if you are stupid with the guides and search some @unsuitable@ things, they will ban you, but a friend asked for pokemon and the guide gave them this... http://i10.tinypic.com/3y5eagk.jpg
