Wiki,Wiki,Wiki

I have known about wiki's since last year. I enjoyed the ability to look something up so quickly almost like a search engine and have massive amounts of documents pop up. It reminds me of the encyclopedia Britannica except that you can beg to differ if you see that something is wrong or you can add any tidbit of whatever extra you happen to know on the subject. Funny story having to do with Wikipedia. My husband Jason came off of an 8 month deployment this year. We went to visit his brother in Pennsylvania any who when the three brothers get together they talk about hi tech gadgets and computer programs etc. So Jason was telling Ruben about Dubai a stop he made on his trip Ruben had never heard of it so he goes ok i am gonna wiki it. I knew what he meant but Jason just had this look like what the heck is wiki we explained it to him and till this day if he doesn't know something or wants to find something out he says I'mjust gonna have to go and wiki it right now lol i guess you had to be there lol
Anyway wikis are awesome totally feels futuristic when i was young i couldn't imagine anything so top notch as the stuff we have now. It makes it easier for the people who already know how to work a computer and it aides that people who are just learning.
