A Contact is a person you’ve added into your Answers Network. You can add up to 200 people to your Contacts list. By adding a person as a Contact, you’ll be able to easily check out their questions, answers and what they’ve starred, right from the Answers homepage and your My Profile page.

There are two ways to add a person as a Contact:

  • To add an existing Answers user – Rollover the picture (or avatar) of the person you’ve chosen to add as your Contact, and click the Add to My Contacts link.
  • To add someone you know outside of Answers – Click here to enter your friend’s name, email address, and a brief message (optional), and we’ll do the rest. You friend will receive an email from us, with a link to connect to you as a Contact on Answers.

There are two ways to remove a Contact:

  • From your Contact’s Answers ID card – Rollover the picture (or avatar) of the contact name you want to remove from your Contacts list, and click the Remove Contact link.
  • From your My Profile page – Scroll down to the Contacts section of the page. Locate the contact name you want to remove from your Contacts list and click Remove Contact.
