    Personally, I read for both. I really enjoy learning something new everyday as well as being entertained.

    I too read for both. I look for inspiration for what I'll review or write about next, or if I'm stuck and need a clue. Also, I check the Questions and Forums for the same things. In the end, it's something to do ^^

    I read for both reasons, both I mostly read them to learn more about the author. The more I read their work the more I connect to the author and thier work. Sometimes reading their work helps me with my creatity for something will spark from them...

    Information. Entertainment is only if I see it and decide I don't know about it too much. Even then, there is information involved.

    Yes majority of reasons go for both, and when you get into and decide what to get from it either entertainment or information.

    If I am searching for a hub, then I am looking for information, but most often, I just click on the hubs that show up on the main page if they interest me. That can either be for information or for entertainment.

    Honestly, for information.  I have too many stories going on in my head to keep me entertained as it is.  I enjoy learning something new, so for me it's educational.

    mostly for information but, sometimes entertainment is added to it automatically!  some hubbers are really excellent at it!!

    If I'm honest, I want to be entertained. I also like to learn if the subject matter is interesting or helpful to me. This, of course, is the opposite of Google searchers who primarily want useful info.
