I have contributed to the SE for more than 6 years, beginning as a greenhorn and ending so far with more than 400 posts(most are answers). I find the value of SE is threefold: 1, it provides me a communication platform; 2, it provides me a place to take notes; 3, it keeps track of my improvements partly by a reputation system which I can monetize elsewhere. I only spend time writing answers there in my idle time.

I've contributed to SE too. SE is great, but SO is now outright hostile to almost everything.
What is SE
StackExchange network. StackOverflow is a part of it, among ServerFault, SuperUser, and others.
