Wiki Wiki

I've found a new threat to my free time: Wikipedia: The Free Encyclopedia. This is an encyclopedia that allows anybody to add or edit all of the content. This by itself doesn't make it cool. What makes it cool is that each post thrives on internal links. So, you're reading an article on high school, and the word "diploma" has a link to the entry on diplomas. On the diploma entry they'll have links to other related entrys. You can imagine what ends up happening...for someone as curious as I am, I end up going from one entry to another, to another, to another, and so on. Big trouble if I actually have important stuff I need to get done.

Plus, you can edit entries and add your own if it is within the guidelines. I created an entry for Whitmore Lake High School. Check it out!

So now "wiki wiki" has a meaning beyond simply being the sound used when scratching on the air turntable...
