Trump, Modi, Quora and AYUSH
A few years ago I discovered a site called Quora. I searched for something on Google and it took me to an answer on Quora. For those who are not familiar with it, Quora is a site where people can post questions and other people can answer them. I found it intriguing and looked at some of the questions and the answers posted. Some of the answers looked vague and long drawn. More an attempt to seek attention than a real answer to the question by someone who knows about the subject. I created an account and answered some of the simple medical questions. Apparently, people like simple factual answers. If people like your answers they upvote them. Depending on how many of you answers are read and how many are upvoted, you can become an expert on a topic. Soon I was an expert on about 20 different topics ranging from liver transplantation to astronomy to Terry Pratchett to cricket. By now I was also posting answers to questions about politics (still brief and factual) and religion (ditto).
