Ask Us Any Question As Long As You're In The UK

A UK mobilephone service startup says : Ask us Anything...

82ASK gamely offers to answer anything, except something illegal or offensive. Some examples:

Where can I buy a pink silk tie in Leeds?
In its interim results what was mmo2’s half year revenue and profit?

The service, only available in the UK at the moment, replies to users by text mesage. The answer costs £1.

Re5ult is the company behind 82ASK, and was founded by Sarah and Thomas Roberts, two former investment bankers. It is angel and founder backed. Business must be good because the company is hiring and has a few jobs on offer for what it calls "Textperts", people that sort through the questions sent in and answer them in a concise way, only 160 characters to work with, we note.
