Why is everyone(including myself) getting addicted to Y! Answers??

I know there's ads on T.V. and the radio, but why, once you start, can't you stop using it? It's so weird. This has never happened to me before!! The only other thing I've ever been addicted to is Facebook....

Any Comments or Opinions??

    We like it and We get addicted to yahoo answers due to many reasons. We get knowledge, teaching, learning , fun, entertainment, current affairs, current attitudes of the people all over the world, current needs of the people current socioal changes and many more other things; all under one roof of yahoo answers. Moreover, the point system on this site gives recognition to the user's participation. So, all these make us addicted to this site and we are transformed into an answerholic

    Man by Nature, is full of lust. It can never be satisfied. It wants to go on and on. So this is what is happening with everyone at Yahoo answers.There are certain types of people here.

    First, who's sharing information & knowlege, they acutally doesn't want to add points but they want to spread as more information as they ca.

    2nd, who is here to get point, even they write only one word in every answer, whether they know the answer or not. they just wants to add points

    Source(s): i do agree with you.

    Its just a way of killing time, helping others and ourselves, a place to let off some steam, cry a little and laugh a little. Once you start, you find your fingers drumming to taking you back.
