Dont you think we are getting addicted to Yahoo Answers? :)) If so, it is the best addiction i guess.
I personally like it so much that i cant get away from it. I learned so many things, just in a while and i loved sharing my info and experience..
what do you think? Have we all become addicted? How do you feel about it?

addiction (as in "craving") n. : an abnormally strong craving
I don't crave going to this site, but it is more interesting than doing on-line crosswords or using some alternate forums. But it's also a novelty and doesn't really offer anything that could become truly addicting (to a normal person, anyway). i think when the novelty wears off, the popularity of the site will wane accordingly.
After all, it's main purpose is to attract readers to their ads, and the quality of the questions and answers cannot be restricted unduly, or improved significantly, as long as the purposes if the opiate providers are not in sync with those of the "users."

I can say its fun to post and read what others things. And it can be very useful at times, when you really need help or answer you can't find by yourself.
Is it addicting?
-Yes, I go on about every day
Yes we all are addicted. But I have school, which helps me beat the addiction

Not sure as I'm addicted but enjoy helping people out since I'm on daily any way doing lots of things and keeping my art sites up dated and goofing off. I just hate the wasted time by fools adding stupid questions a waste of everyones time and shouldn't be allowed.

You are at level 2. Believe me, there will come a time where your addiciton to Y!A's will subside and get replaced with other emotions.
I'll try not to sway you with any sort of premonitions. You will further understand this as you clock in more time here and advance to higher Levels 5, 6 or 7. Trust me on this and....... Best Wishes!

Hi, my name is Renee and I'm an answer-holic.
Very addictive- I find I use more of my time at work on this then doing my reports.
Crazy!!

I find it the most relaxing thing...in the middle of a bad day, or when my brain is just fried it takes you off in another direction.
I think its an ADHD's dream, always different, lots of choices and always available. I love it too.
