There are some 3.7 billion web searches every month for education-related topics. However, ask a student how easy it is to find answers to their burning academic questions, and they'll probably just roll their eyes. Sure, there's Wikipedia, Google (and Google Scholar), Khan Academy and there are even Q&A sites like Yahoo Answers or Answers.com. While Khan is great for videos, it doesn't produce quick answers and Yahoo Answers is atrocious. It's littered with ads and answers are often misleading, incomplete or just flat out wrong. Quora has emerged as a promising foil to crappy Q&A sites, but, while it can be educational, it's not geared towards those in school. That's why Sallie Severns (a former Answers.com executive) founded and launched Answer Underground -- a learning utility and mobile app that it designed to help students share info and get fast answers through group Q&A.Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/MDP2zoesIVU/
