No such thing as a dumb question? Well, frankly there is and today is the day to ask one in honor of “Ask a Stupid Question Day.” Just do us a favor and steer clear of Yahoo! Answers. Here’s an answer to “Whatcha been up to?”

  • Carpal thumbs?: Well, give them a rest by downloading the latest Yahoo! Messenger for the Web. Not only can you access Yahoo! Messenger now from any Internet browser, you can send text messages (SMS) to your pals on their mobile phones (just US, India and Canada for now) for free. And don’t worry, if they respond, you’ll get the reply back via Messenger. We’ve even got brand new, local language versions for Thailand, Indonesia, and new languages for India (nine of them in fact!). Read more here.
  • Geeks get rewarded: Got all the (best) answers to questions about consumer electronics, computers and the Internet? Yahoo! Answers may have an iPhone for you as part of their Best Answer Sweeps. Give it your best shot here before October 12th. There will be ten winners and even runner-up prizes for top contributors, so it can’t hurt to try (keep in mind the five entry limit per person). Random prize drawings will take place a week after the sweeps end. Check out the tips on how to get a “Best Answer” status before you start dishing your know-how. Read more here.
  • Doh! Another 4-year-old: Happy belated to Upcoming. At least we can rely on you to keep good time! Cheers to another event-filled calendar year.
