What does the star icon mean on Yahoo Answers?
The “star” simply means you found a question interesting or “good” for one reason or another. Questions with stars can be boosted to the POPULAR tab on the front page, or even to the Featured Question. It also allows you to see who ELSE starred the question, so you might find people with similar tastes to “contact”. Here is the blog explaining it all: http://blog.360.yahoo.
