To try this out, I’ve asked a first question: his answer:
Listing fee: GA [Google Answers] charged 50 cents to post a question. There is no listing fee at uclue.
Price range: uclue accepts questions ranging from $5 to $250, compared with GA’s $2-200 range.
Payment: Payment at uclue is in advance, and can be made via Paypal or with a credit card (as long as that feature is enabled...depends a bit on the customer’s country). GA was credit card only, and payment was processed when the answer was posted (NOTE – the ’payment in advance’ feature is the result of our current software configuration, and may be changed down the road).
Scope: uclue won’t venture into anything that is patently illegal, and we won’t write student essays or do their tests for them. Other than that, though, pretty much every topic is fair game. We’ll even answer questions about uclue itself (as this current answer demonstrates). GA had some built-in limits in this respect.
Languages: GA was EO – English only! uclue can field questions in three languages, English, German and Spanish, and might add more down the road.
Hot Bot: There is no autobot roaming the uclue site and automatically locking questions that contain certain terms.
Ratings: Customer ratings can be revised at uclue, a feature that was not available at GA.
Identities: I think you’ll find uclue much more casual when it comes to the true identities and/or whereabouts of individual researchers.
I’ve also asked another question on how one can become a Uclue researcher (at this time, this list:
