Facebook aims sights at Yahoo!

Facebook has today set out its stall and let the world know that it’s been secretly working on a questions/answers site to rival Yahoo! answers and an imminent product from Google.

Unlike simply typing a question into your status and hoping one of your friends has the answer, Facebook Questions will allow anyone to answer you giving you access to a huge resource pool.

Although still in beta, with 50,000 users, there is no known release date as Facebook will be cautiously be rolling it out to users in batches, but as soon a it is available to the 500m registered users, it will make sites such as Yahoo! answers, ask, and aardvark almost obsolete overnight.
