I hope that one of this is not a motto of your life.
For many of us, Facebook and Instagram are sources of entertainment.
But now, it's time to get over all of this. This article is aimed towards all those who think that liking or commenting on someone's pics, following some strange people on the net is an entertainment.
Facebook/Instagram is not helping you develop your knowledge, it is wasting your time and bla bla bla. We all know these things but then too we have ignored the negative consequences of these social media platforms because we think that Facebook or Instagram are the only sources of entertainment in our life. But today, to keep you away from the 'stupid' Facebook and Instagram I'm going to introduce you with a new way of keeping yourself busy and entertained. "Annnd..the OSCARS, Oh sorry, the onus of keeping you entertained goes to:
What is 'Quora'?
Now, the boring 'Wikipedia' kind of description of Quora is that, it is a question-and-answer site where questions are asked, answered, edited and organized by its community of users. This sounds like a very boring one but trust me, it is a bomb. Quora is a rocket packed with knowledge as well as entertainment.
People like us, raise questions on Quora about right from Physics, Chemistry or Maths to Clash of Clans to politics and even some dumb questions. People having knowledge about those questions, answer them and if your answers are really good, you get 'Upvotes' (rather than likes) for your knowledge (not for your photos) and others can even follow you on it.
So, on Quora you don't follow strange people by just looking at their faces but you follow them due to the knowledge they have. Most of the times, the word 'knowledge' sounds boring but Quora and Quorans(users of Quora) have re-defined the word 'knowledge'.
Why is Quora useful?
Suppose, you have a question in your mind(about any topic) and unfortunately it is unanswered. Just type it on Quora and you will get answers(to that question) from many people all across the world. If you don't find your question on Quora, then you can even raise that question on it. Don't worry about your question not being answered because there are 190 million monthly visitors on Quora from all across the world who are eager about answering questions.(What more do you need?)
Why is Quora different?
Quora is not like
Facebook, where Christiano Ronaldo(popular footballer) is the most-liked person....
It is not like
Instagram , where Selena Gomez(popular singer) is the most followed person.....
It is not like
Twitter, where everything is just about celebrities, celebrities and celebrities
Quora is made by common people like you and me where people like us interact with our knowledge.
So, I hope that I have given you enough reasons for leaving the 'old', 'boring' Facebook or Instagram and signing up on Quora right now .
