Microsoft is now getting ready to launch a new beta service called Windows Live QnA which will be very simialr to Google’s or Yahoo’s Answers service where you can ask questions to others in the hope that an expert in that feild of study will answer your question, but get this, according to Gary Price he beileves it’s going to be a free service unlike Google Answers paid service!

Here’s some info on it from the sign-up page:

What do you really want to know? The best chocolate chip cookie recipe? The fastest shortcut through downtown? Elvis’ weight on Jupiter? Somebody out there is bound to have the answers you’re looking for—and you probably know something they want to know, too. Get and give answers based on personal experience and expertise. QnA creates a community of knowledge that grows and gets better every day.

What it gives you

• A store of human knowledge containing facts, opinions, and experiences
• Reputation-based scoring, so you know which sources are most reputable
• Voting that determines the best answer to any question
