Gosh, the Summer is nearly over. For whatever reason, I have not been posting regularly. Could it be that I am at a loss for words ? Ahh. don't count on it.
Actually, last year at this time, I was just returning to the States from my European vacation . Ahh, how I long for Oktoberfest.
Anyway, I digress. In my daily perusing of the net I stumbled some intriguing information. Figured I share it with you. Most of you know that I'm an avid reader of non-fictional texts. I also happen to appreciate the power of Google. Have you ever wondered how and why encyclopedias have become extinct ? Well, you should experience the Wikipedia phenomenon.
If you have school-aged children, they should become very familiar with Wiki.
Only wish I had access to this technology while I was a youth. In fact, the growth of the internet and colloborative software makes the Wiki Project possible.
Definitely, not advocating that you throw away your library card, as they do serve a purpose. Simply allow yourself to become an early adopter and improve your knowledge of all subjects.
The Wikipedia is pretty cool. Thanks for the heads up...oh and keep the postings coming.
Pretty useful piece of software. It contains definitions and explanations of the most abstract subject matter.
