Question: Why Does Yahoo Answers exist!? !?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Because Yahoo decided it was away to draw more people to it's site!.

It's successful because people like sharing knowledge and the "points" concept gets the competitive nature of humans going!. It appeals to both the altruist and the selfish aspect of our natures!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Suggest it is there to help people out!.As an example if you do not know how to handle a problem or task , or are struggling with it,there may be someone out there who has had the same problem or task and has found an easy or better way to complete it !.It sorta reminds Me of inventing the wheel,if the wheel has already been invented,why spend time and energy re-inventing it if there is someone out there who has already done so!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

From what I can tell, this forum is a free, anonymous, global, voluntary, very democratic form of entertainment, and I like it as a way to spend some of my surplus time and communicate with others!. The fact that many of us think this is entertaining is more than enough reason for YA to exist and continue!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Because we are not all knowing and sometimes could do with some help from other people either because people we know in person (ie:friends and family) do not know the answer to our question, or because our question is personal and we would like to remain anonymous about it!. As for answering questions - i like helping people and many others do to!.
