Ask Jeeves Ask Jeeves has editors who try to find sites that answer popular questions. These answers are listed in the "Click Ask below for your answers" section at the top of the search results page at Ask Jeeves. Information Please Information Please almanacs are favorites among researchers who need trustworthy facts.
