Okay, I Admit it. I regularly use Wikipedia for various information and have found the site to be awsome and very useful, especially the trust I had built up in knowing that everything had been cross checked, double checked and quite possibly hip checked for all I knew before anything was published, thus ensuring Wikipedia as a definnative referance. Imagine my surprise when I ran a search on Etreme Home Makeover and found out that the series has been cancelled and off the air since July of 2007. Really, that's what the pagfe said. But here's the cool part- no sooner had I signed up and logged into the site so I could come up with some lame I told you so no one was awake at the switch and how can you expect to trust ANYONE in these times we live in now speech BUT, I figured I should maybe cut and paste the web addy nto my "complaint form" and that way I could say HAH! There's the proof! Als, I connot do this folks, and here's why: Wikipedea is not only aware of the problem but was fixing it as I tried to rant and rave that all was wrong with the world because of it. By the time I went to cut and paste, a new page had already been put up in it's place with updated information about the show, mentioning that it is still, in fact, airing every sunday as usuall and confirming hte fact that no, I have not been watching reruns at all. Now I know this is prolly a pointless rave nonetheless, I felt that it was important I said words of praise in the same venue I would have used to "not praise" where praise is due. In this fast paced life we live in nowadays, we tend to overlook or simply foget the little things. Take the service industry for instance. I doubt anyone still reading this would hesitate to complain about really poor sevice they had recieved, but would many of you praise the good? Or simply accept it as "well I shop, eat, purchase, etc. here so they owe me" attitude and go about your day? Not only did wikipedia give me a venue to gripe, but the very thing I wanted to gripe about was fixed AS I WAS GETTING READY TO GRIPE ABOUT IT! Wow! Talk about hitting the mark. You guys were just a resourse I used in my own little world but are now going to be my ONLY reccomendation in any future dipute over anything, and I just thought you all should know that the great job is NOT going on unnoticed, and you are appreciated greatly amongst me and now mine.
