What doess Yahoo!Answers do for you?

Answer 1

it gives me a chance to expand my knowledge of things further.

it gives me a chance to put in personal additions into my answers, to express myself properly. i use ideas from my past and present, and i find ways to describe them, find ways to change them, use them, put connections between them.

it also gives me a chance to converse with those who are on a similar intellectual level. noone i know, even my parents, come anywhere near my level of combined maturity and knowledge.

it also shows me that i am not the only one to have gone through what i have been through, that i am not the only one with the problems i have faced, that i am not the only one who knows.

it gives me a chance to learn other peoples opinions, to learn what i should do myself, how i compare to other people, how others compare to me.

it gives me many things, all equally important, all things i can never find outside of this.

Honestly and sadly, nothing. It is a way to spend time when I have nothing better to do.

Answer 12

I have always been a thinker! And Yahoo Answers has given me an outlet to the way other people think with questions I probably wouldn't have thought about.  The more I think about life, the world around me, and all that it has to offer - both good and bad, the more I learn about myself.  

Maybe Yahoo Answers has been the cause to me losing sleep, but I have definitely gained a new level of understanding in this world.
