    Why don't you Google this yourself instead of asking us to do it for you?

    The most popular should be similarworlds(dot)com. It is the website that replace experienceproject.

    There was a genuine information-seeking Q & A site called Answers -dot-com.

    It may still be alive, but you can no longer post anything on it.

    It had many classifications - hobbies and sports, music, vehicle-maintenance, animals, mathematics, the sciences, etc.

    Generally it was very good though did attract two or three rather undesirable posts. They were typically:

     - Answers beyond the respondent's own knowledge, so wrong, but misleading anyone genuinely not knowing.

      - Answers (and occasionally questions) that were merely stupid or even obscene - probably from dim-witted children or immature adults.

     - Children trying to cheat in their homework, usually in "Math" (Maths, to me!) which was also Arithmetic. They expected the end answers, not as I would offer, an explanation to help them understand how to solve such question themselves.

      - Adult who were either complicit in that cheating by giving the answer instead of explaining the method; or who made the simplest question into the most confusing tangle they possibly could!

    This last category especially affected questions on converting between Imperial and ISO (Metric) units of measure, e.g., "how many miles in 56 kilometres?" [sic - the correct, standard spelling of this French word is kilometre]. Living in a country that has largely converted officially to the Metric System I am accustomed to using and converting between, both systems, both professionally and privately; so well placed to answer many of those questions. Unfortunately the field suffered from a small cadre of regular trouble-makers who delighted in trying to confuse the questioners by offering utter drivel about "Dimensional Analysis" and  "Algebra", introducing many superfluous conversion stages in the sums - and them sometimes getting their own arithmetic wrong anyway!

    TO explain why "utter drivel" - such conversions are not Analysing Dimensions, but are from one Unit to another in a single Dimension by a simple, single multiplier published in relevant text-books or web-sites. So to complete that example, the only Dimension is Length, the units are miles and kilometres, the Mile to Km constant accurately enough for most journeys is 5/8 or 0.62; so there are 56 X 5/8 = 35, miles in 56km.

    I was one of Answers' specialists in one field - caves and caving, and to some extent outdoor-pursuits like walking. I often had to say the word for caving is Not "spelunking" - though I'd also explain why.

    'Tis a pity Answers stopped being active. I found information useful to me on various topics as well as being able to answer a lot of questions.
