I've noticed this more now than before, but a significant chunk of the posts have to do with "I can't find something.. please help." More often than not, their answers can easily be found with a search engine using the words they use in their post. Then there is the question about finding someone's address or phone number. Or how about "I need more info on productX by companyY."
Then you realize these same people have web access to post which usually doesn't exclude them from hitting up the search engines, websites designed for finding specific information, companyY's website for info on productX, etc. Unless the question is really obscure, your question's already been answered somewhere at sometime by somebody. The following are only a very small selection of tools you can use:
Google
Google groups
Whois Search
The Whitepages
Internet MOVIE database
Now get going and answer your own damned questions! :|
