You can still use it as a resource for some things, like this one. I thought the story stunk, and Snopes confirmed.
However, the only reason Snopes came into my viewpoint was when I searched go ogle for the story the snopes result showed up like three times on my top page.
How do you know which time to trust snopes or not? Not being snide just wondering.
I use snopes for urban legend kind of things, those old emails that come around every few years. But never for debunking anything political, they are just paid shills.
