Some people do it for resume points.
Personally, I open-source my random crap because it's possible that someone else had a similar problem and would appreciate a pre-made solution. I have been on the receiving end of that many times, and paying it forward is the least I can do.
I open source everything I make whether it's useful to anyone or not just for the sake of it, I document it for CV points
