English (US)   Wikipedia, wikis, and Vannevar Bush  -  Categories: Networks and Networlds  -  twv @ 04:03:50 pm

The Wikipedia article on Britannica Online is worth reading, eh? I wondered whether the article would be up to, say, Wikipedia standards. And I'm pleasantly surprised at how good it is. The article on wikis is arguably better, since the writer references HyperCard and Vannevar Bush!

Vannevar Bush is my favorite Bush. Accept no substitutes.

Furthermore, the article on The Cathedral & The Bazaar is also a miracle of concision. Fascinating stuff. And I found it on Britannica! Amazing.
