Where did myLot get its name?

MyLot is the brainchild of a company called Waseringtech and opened its door in April 2006. The name 'MyLot' was originally used for a site which dealt with garden equipment (a 'lot' means a piece of ground and is sometimes used to refer to the ground around one's house, a backyard or a garden). The word 'lot' can also refer to a group of friends or a community one belongs to, so it is quite appropriate for a site like this with a community 'feel' to it where one can meet and discuss almost anything. One very unique thing about the site is that it pays us to participate and that the payments are not based on how many posts you make but on the quality of your participation. You will find more information on this in the FAQs under "Earnings and Payment Information". Most people who have been here a long time (like me) tend to value the site as a place to meet and interact with friends, to learn all sorts or things and to generally have fun. The earnings become more of a 'bonus' than anything else, though, of course, it's always rather nice when you reach $10 or more by the end of any month and know that you are due to see that in your PayPal account in 15 days time! Welcome to MyLot! I hope that you enjoy the discussions you take part in and the people you meet!

This is a great site and hope you will always feel this way. I have been an active member here almost 6 yrs now and it continues to be one of my favorites places to be.
