it prevents you from sucking in ash as well as cooling the smoke therefore making it a healthier way to smoke.
and the bubbles are cool

theres no finger basically the bowl's stem drops into the water then when you inhale the smoke gets filtered through the water then you take the bowl out of the holeso that you can clear all the smoke from the chamber. sorry but im a bit to buzzed to explain all the bong vocabulary...

The "hole" is called a carb and you hold it while filling the chamber and then release to help force the air into your lungs and clear the chamber. As stated before, the water filters and cools the smoke and it sounds really cool and looks cool too. Sometimes bongs don't have carbs so you use a slide instead.
