I have been associated to Quora for over three years now. I just came across the website by-chance three years ago while reading up an article on the internet. As I started digging deep into the website, I found that it is brimming with information.
Quora.com is a question-and-answer site, that means you ask questions here and you get answers from its community. Based in Mountain View, California, this website has gone from strengths to strengths since its inception. It is a US-based website does not mean that it is dominated by the West. In fact, almost 40 percent of Quora's subscribers are Indians!
You have to make an account on the website to get started. You can also login via gmail here. You do not have to pay anything to remain a member of this website. Once you do the login, you have to fill out certain forms so that the website knows better about you. You will, then, be receiving top stories from your feed. That means, whatever interests you have chosen in the forms, top questions related to those fields would be mailed to you in the feed. You can yourself ask any question on this website and normally, you will get an answer within a day.
The Quora community consists of scientists, physicists, educators, professors, engineers, doctors and laymen. Many a times, several celebrities and politically important figures also take Quora session where they answer questions posed to them. In fact, very recently Hilary Clinton held a Quora session while campaigning for the 2016 Presidential elections. You can gain a lot of information by experts, especially if you are a student. Questions related to Physics especially are a treat-to-read. However, you cannot earn any money from your answers. This website is solely geared towards spreading knowledge.
Overall, it is a must-visit website if you want to expand the horizons of your knowledge. You will learn new things here, which will enrich your knowledge like nothing else.
- Thank You! We appreciate your effort.
