Do you ever have a question, but don’t know who to ask? Need your answer quickly?
Try Aardvark! It’s a service that connects you with real people who have real answers! Signing up takes about 30 seconds. You can connect via Facebook if you’d like. You’ll want to add your instant messenger account as well as your email so you have to ways to ask/answer. Select a few topics you’d be available to answer questions for, and walla!
When you ask a question at Aardvark it’s sent out to anyone in your network with that topic listed on their profile. They can then answer your question, or ‘pass’ and let someone more qualified answer.
I’m a new user, but already I’ve been able to answer questions about Freelancing, WordPress, Facebook, Crafts, and Healthy Eating. I’ve also asked a few questions about WordPress and plugins and have been very happy with the results!
You can invite friends and tag them with topics you think they’d give good answers for!
What would you ask Aardvark??
Thanks for the awesome post on Aardvark! Glad to hear you've had a great experience so far. I'd love to hear any other feedback that you or your readers have – alison@aardvarkteam.com
Oh, I'm having so much fun with it! My husband got me hooked.
After having a couple of my own questions answered, I couldn't wait to tell others about it!
Wow this is really cool. Just the other day I was thinking of something similar to this – a way to help people out but it was going to be a solo attempt. This is perfect though. Will check this out for sure.
Thanks for sharing (and thanks to Mike CJ for the tweet to here)

Good tip and review. I'm going to try it out, as it sounds really solid.
Thanks for sharing!
You're gonna love Aardvark! It's one of the simplest applications I've seen. You can ask questions on Twitter, but you're limited to your followers as to who sees it, and you have to hope someone with the answer actually sees your tweet in their stream. With Aardvark your question is directed to the correct audience and you have a much larger chance of getting an answer!
Have fun with Aardvark!!! I'll be sure to find you there.
Very nice, I have been always fan of such kind of services and social networks!
