While there is a bit of thrill when those coins jingle in my paypal account, there is more to writing for sites like this than earning.
1. I keep in touch with the English language as there are not many I interact with in the real world
2. I get to read what others have written and gain knowledge on subjects that interest me.
3. When I am writing a blog I collect information on the Net from genuine sites and compile it. Those who read my blogs do not have to do that. They have information readily available.
4. I have picked up so much knowledge surfing the Net – much more than what I learnt through my school and college life.
5. I have met so many friends here who share my interests. Sadly most of my real life contacts have no interest in my pursuits.
6. The various groups give me an opportunity to discuss on subjects that are of mutual interest. There is so much we learn from each other.
7. I consider this to be an opportunity to socialise for which I do not have to step out of my house.
8. My typing has improved and so has my speed.
9. I look forward to clicking pictures as photography is my passion and when I get appreciaton when I post them on these sites it sort of encourages me to click more. I do not see such enthusiasm in my real world.
10. When I was in school I longed to have penfriends which some how did not work out but here I have the whole world at my feet to pick and choose who I wish to interact with.
11. Friends here exchange information on their lifestyle which I like to understand. Their culture, their eating habits and stuff like that can only be found at writing sites such as this.

You can write for Wikipedia by creating your account there. I prefer correcting the wrong information available in certain posts. I have done that many a times and received thanks message. I have also received counter correction message at one particular correction I did.
Thanks. I am fully booked - busy on 3 sites myLot, LB and tinycent each giving me different angles to write.
Yes right. For me it really helps to improve my vocabulary everyday. And also I learn what's going on in the world which isn't shown in the news..like very small but interesting topics. :)
You are right. What we get to read here is not available anywhere. Here users write about their own life and also their blogs are compiled from info gathered.
What you have shared is very true. This writing sites are not just for writing but they offer information that most people wouldn't know. It also helps people become more efficient in their writing and others gain confidence in what they believe in which is a good thing. For me it has opened my eyes first and foremost on ideas and ways of making a few pennies and I have also had the oppoertunity to learn about other people and their cultures
What I have picked up here in the last few years I could not have picked up from anywhere else.
