Who else here thinks that the random article search on Wikipedia is the greatest thing that has ever happened to the human race? It's sweet, I just learned all about the French Revolution, licensing laws of the UK, AND the Buick Reatta!!!

Same here. I always browse the /random article thing when I'm in a class with wifi.

I remember learning that there is a version of sushi where the fish is still alive while it being eaten, found a list of movie death scenes that was grouped, and Za Guinnipiggu series. Have to go to Chinatown to find that!

Also learned about the various sickening practices that went on with Unit 731 in WWII in China.

Definitely one of the wonders of the world, that wikipedia >_>.

Yeah, I totally use it when I'm studying for history and stuff too. I can also find out about almost anything I'm interested, like I looked up some of my favourite artists and there was all this rad info and links. I added Hackrifice to footbag

I mostly use it to gain more knowledge of obscure music genres and how they all interconnect. I don't know why but I'm really interested in that kind of thing.
