I just love wikipedia. Im not sure how i ended up on Chevy Chases' page, but i did. Turns out he is a 14th generation New Yorker, from a prominent family that included a general who played a pivotal part in the battle of Midway in WWII, among other interesting facts.

Anyone else get lost in the spiders web that is wikipedia?

play the game where you start on a random page and pick something and try to get to that page by only clicking the blue highlighted words in the article.

I think I've definitely out-smarted some people because of my hours spent on Wikipedia.

It is sad that highschool teachers don't consider wikipedia a reliable source

This game is amazing.
I went from Harry Potter to Pokemon to Skiing to Les Paul. Pretty gnarly.
