From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello. I am London.

I edit trivial bits of Wikipedia that relate to common ground I have with friends and then send them the URLs and wait for a reaction.

Since I started using Wikipedia, I've acquired a pragmatic attitude to fact-finding and rarely leave any of life's questions unanswered. It makes me wish I was a child who was just learning to read, with a head full of questions. I'm glad, however, that I've been through an education that has trained my ability to appraise sources of information.

Since friends have started using Wikipedia, online chats have changed. Questions are answered by pasted-in URLs, or simply not asked at all.

It's the future; and the goal of documenting the sum of human knowledge is a romantic one. I love it.
