What advantage does Mahalo Answers have over other Answers-type offerings (Yahoo Answers, Answers.com, etc.)?

Why should we focus our question-and-answer talents here? I'm interested in the advantages...
Tip for best answer: M$0.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

The pay aspect seems to hold the potential for advantage. When people are paid if their answer is chosen it lends itself to better answers and reputation by those who answer to be trusted in the future.

Mahalo offers a 'reward' system for giving the most accurate, informative answer. They have a tipping system where users can put a dollar amount on how much they're willing to give somebody for a great answer and they can also get points for answering questions, along with bonus points if that answer is chosen as the best one!

Because there is the tipping (monterized) component, people are more prone to do a better job in their research.

Mahalo is more focused because this is one of the best ways for them to generate page views. User are doubly rewarded for contributing content, cash and rich media. Jason Calacanis will doggedly market this product until he is hoarse because he is obsessed with mahalo.

Because people have the opportunity to get paid for their answers, they will spend more time and effort to make sure their answer is helpful so it is chosen as the best.
