uber-nerd

I've officially crossed the line. I'm an internet nerd. Not only do I casually observe the happenings on the marvelous interwebs, I am now one who actually contributes to this massive chaotic giant of tubes, webs, and bits and bats.

I'm speaking of Wikipedia, my favorite website. I love it for it's random wealth of information on anything from
tube socks to the spiritual culture of the Siberian Yupiks. I'll spend hours just cruising away, jumping from one topic to the next, in this random and trivial form of pseudo-education. So fascinating.

I've been obsessed with Wikipedia for a couple years now, but as I said, I've now officially crossed the line. I'm now a Wikipedia Editor, complete with personal
profile (boring) and more importantly, my first article contribution. My first edit is kind of boring, but was the only thing I could think of off the top of my head that I had specific knowledge about that no one else had already written on.

So there ya go. A new hobby to fit into my already busy life... and why the heck not.
