Jeeves answers tricky questions

BT has signed up for a fantastic new service that may signal a new dawn of enlightenment for many Internet users.

Jeeves Answers is the question and answer service from Internet search engine Ask Jeeves. It will now be available on BT.com, according to the blurb, to provide “visitors to BT.com with a more human interface where they can ask questions using everyday language”.

Anyone who has tried to get a straight answer out of BT about their Internet services will appreciate this.

BT even suggests questions for visitors to ask Jeeves Answers: “What is BT Together?” and “What can SurfTime do for me?”

Some cynics might suggest these are exactly the questions Internet users all over the UK have been trying to get answers to for the past few months.
