Blast Yahoo Answers back to hell by installing a Chrome extension called Google Search Filter: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-search-filt...

Add Experts-Exchange to the blacklist while you're at it.

Ah, nice! Only downside is that it doesn't support highlighting certain results. For example, Google Search Filter highlights Wikipedia and StackExchange results for, while removing cruft like Yahoo Answers.

I think Google has done a pretty good job at blacklisting Expert-sExchange. I don't remember the last time they turned up in my search results.
