    mostly harmless, occasionally fun, not something i have a lot of occassion to actually USE. mostly i only end up there when i'm referd to it from someplace else to explain something mentioned in passing.

    actually there are many 'wikipedias' besides the main one. there are a number of tecnologically specialized ones, and also a number of intrest group based ones.

    and then there are the other language portals to it too. those are fun, even if i can't actually read most of them. i get refered to them sometimes too.
