Answers.com Hits 10 Millionth Answer, Launches Its First iPhone App (blufr)

Answers Corporation, which owns and operates a community-generated Q&A site at Answers.com, this morning announced that its database of answers now tops 10 million.

In conjuction with the announcement, Answers Corporation is today debuting its first iPhone app, a free fast-paced trivia game dubbed blufr.

The 10 millionth answer registered by the Israeli/US company came in response to the question: “Who was the first Native American to play pro-football?” (direct link).

The company points out that the answer to this question can improve over time as people contribute their knowledge by using the site’s “Improve” feature. Questions can also be discussed in Answers.com’s community forum and can easily be shared on social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter.

Bob Rosenschein, CEO of Answers.com, also reveals in the press release that its community is now 5.5 million registered members strong.
