Exception that proves the rule of the quality of Yahoo Answers: Craig Newmark answering a question about how craigslist makes money. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20060720194938AA...


Are authoritative answers like those still being posted on Y! Answers these days though? Craig's answer was from 6 years ago.


These days I still find many general knowledge questions (i.e. non-technical) being redirected from Google to an entry in Y! Answers. These are not strongly affected by time, so I suppose it's still playing a role (even if only as an archive)
