My 9th grader was playing around on his cell phone, said someone told him about this cool place called cha cha (or something like that) where you can text a person's name, then in a few minutes you will get a response about what that person does and where they live. While we were driving, he was entering names to see what the response would be. A few of his friends came back as professional athletes because of the same names which he thought was pretty funny. Then he entered my name and waited a minute. the response came back that I was a professional real estate agent, had brown hair and was very pretty. WHAT?????????? How creepy is that? Doesn't sound like a bit of information a computer would spit out. Raised a big red flag in my head.
I did a google image search of my name and my photo does show up at the top of the search page. I am just thinking that I need to do a little due diligence about this latest craze among my kid's group. Can anyone enlighten me?
UPDATE-
I found their website, www.chacha.com. Here's what they say. Hmmmm.
With ChaCha, when you've got questions, we've got the answers. And every month, we're asked millions and millions of questions from everyday, normal queries to some that are completely out of the ordinary. And because our questions are answered by humans, not computers, we have as much fun answering our customers' questions as they have asking us!
I guess what has me worried is the "fun" some of these chacha humans could have with their answers, with a kid on the other end of the phone. Am I overly concerned?
