No this is not a prank or a hoax number, and I’m not trying to coerce you into doing the Cha Cha slide either. This is a legit mobile phone service, as weird as it may sound, and this might just be the next mobile phone “revolution.” ChaCha’s ingenious new 1-800-2-ChaCha (800-224-2242) mobile answers service allows cell phone users to ask an extensive range of questions (in English) while on the go — and within minutes, will receive free answers via text message.
- What You Can Ask “ChaCha”
Who stars in the movie Juno?
- What is the talk time for the Jawbone 2?
How much is a Garmin Nuvi 360?
What is the best Bluetooth headset store in the country? (Well … I may be biased!)

- The ChaCha’ing Behind ChaCha
-
- According to the CEO of ChaCha
- “On mobile devices, traditional 411 has been the only easy to use option and it is limited to the basics of only finding a phone number or address,” explains ChaCha CEO Scott A. Jones. “More recently, desktop search engines have attempted to enter the mobile market by forcing users to enter a restricted query with their thumbs on a tiny keypad in a specific way, which causes most people to find other ways of meeting their information needs, such as calling a friend or waiting until they get to a computer, or, worse yet, making less-informed decisions. Using ChaCha is like having thousands of informed friends available by phone to help answer your questions 24 hours a day.”
- ChaCha is available on any mobile phone. Yes that means even flip phones to the all-extensive smartphone. Also, ChaCha was ranked as the “No. 1 Alternative Search Engine” in February of this year, according to ReadWriteWeb. Along with Bluetooth technology, ChaCha’s mobile technology answering service is a new and upcoming tool that many people are going to capitalize on … I mean, the tool is so easy to use it’s almost like doing the ChaCha slide …
I was wondering the same thing … I mean, how does this whole thing work? Well, ChaCha’s new service instantly routes each question to a human guide, which dramatically increases the type of questions you can ask. The guide then uses Web search engines and quickly returns a relevant answer in a text message with a Web reference link. Easy enough, right?!?!
