Yahoo! Answers in Search Results

Yahoo! adds their Answers to the organic results:

“As you may have seen, we have been integrating knowledge from the Yahoo! Answers community into search to enhance your search experience.”

As you can see, the new section features an excerpt of the best answers to questions that are relevant to your search. The excerpt gives you a more detailed preview of the content from the Answers community before you click through.”

What is the point?

Does this really enhance the user’s experience, or fill it with more junk from the index?

My personal opinion: Great way to waste real estate!

What do you think, is this building a better search experience?
