It is also entertaining. Compare this to 118118, I've asked them a few challenging questions in the past and they actually totally ignored my texts. I've never tried Texperts, but I found a press release, which confirms that Texperts is to be acquired by KGB, who have an mobile advertising initiative running for 118118. http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/kgb-Acquire-Texperts/story.aspx?guid={8BB32322-52C5-47A7-A479-BEA77E253798} As for Quizbot I'm looking forward to having a play around with it. I'm hoping that they will be able to develop it even further in future. Hi, I too also find AQA 63336 to be the most reliable source of information when it comes to question services.

I use them for bus/train times when I'm out and about and they nearly always reply within a few minutes and with lots of info. Rather £1 on something worthwhile than 15p on something pointless!

I have been disappointed by 118118 in the past and the racist joke fiasco showed them to be unreliable. Texperts have, so I understand, been bought by a company with links to 118118. Give me 63336 anytime! It may be cheap but I’d much rather pay more for the superior service provided by AQA 63336.

It knows obama and bill gates and can tell me who is tallest of the two. Asked who is John smith it asks me to be more specific, so all good there. Now for the killer question, what does it say if you ask who is mike butcher? Well it is good news and bad there. It knows who Mike Butcher is: Michael Dana Butcher (born May 10, 1965 in Davenport, Iowa), currently the pitching coach for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays You can have some fun finding out the extent of the data held; try asking who is followed by famous and not so famous names.
