How did this site come to be?
I (Zach Cone) bought this domain name back in 2000. I then basically went to askjeeves.com and copied their source and changed it a little to make a joke. The joke was that I was not the brightest bulb in the box, so the results would not make much sense. It would send users to (very) random websites. I kind of never finished it and tried updating it a couple of times. I lost interest in the domain and planned on selling it. After a year or two I was informed that the domain name was now property of ZC Industries. They wanted to relaunch the site as one where someone would actually answer people’s questions. After searching for a while (using Google) they found me and hired me. Unfortunately, the company has no real assets so in exchange for answering all these questions I got 30% stake in ZC Industries. For more information on the history of this domain read the company history on the ‘About Us” page.
