Andy Roberts is a writer who initiated DARnet. Catch me on 
So I want to know does any body else use wikipedia and what for?
what was the most informatibve artical you found there?
What was the wierdest one you found?
I use wikipedia mostly durring my lunch time at work to just read up on stuff. the most informative artical I found was on the mineing and refineing
process for copper (because I learned about the job I have, and got to show off to co-workers ;p) the most interesting was probably on cheese witch I
actualy e-mailed to my self so I could finish reading it after work.
oh well, got wiki?
I use Wiki quite a lot for research for articles I write for my Yahoo group, and which may eventually appear on the group’s blog shown above. I’m currently working on a potted biog of Jimi Hendrix, and will insert into the article links to the WIKI entries for the lyrics of his 2 related songs ‘Voodoo Chile’ and ‘Voodoo Chile(Slight Return)’. Other WIKI articles that I’ve recently found interesting are those on Yuletide and the Fly Agaric fungus, which AR recently posted to the Stormcock list. That last one definitely qualifies for the weirdness award
