ode to wikipedia

you, sir, are the single greatest invention to come from the internet. even better than skype.

what else is there? I guess the ability to hear music that you would not have the opportunity to hear otherwise is pretty good, but you have to surpress your morals to do so - or make arguments that seem to make sense.

anything else? commercial free television? arts and letters daily? youtube glimpses into the retarded lives of everyone from 12 - 35?

all lose to the amazing collective knowledge, the easily searchable brain, that is wikipedia.

i love you wikipedia.

wikipeida is nice. as is digital filesharing though, you're right, i always have to tell your morals to shut the hell up when i steal music. but my favourite is the ability to narrate your life for all to read and then have next to no one care. blogging rules.

yeah, but you could just think these things and then no one at all could possibly care. So even if one person cares, it is an infinitely higher number.

that is pretty high.
