H&R Block ChaChas into Tax Season

As the deadline for filing 2008 taxes draws near, getting those pesky tax questions answered is as easy as sending a text message.

Venerable tax prep firm H&R Block has partnered with SMS mobile search service ChaCha for its first mobile advertising campaign.

Last year, ChaCha’s mobile answer service saw tax-related questions increase nearly 25% in the period leading up to April 15.
