Netspert
An interesting attempt at a first article, but I nominated it for speedy deletion. Here are my thoughts.
 * I don't think you should add lines about when you first created an article with statements like "edits below this line are welcome. Remember, Wikipedia uses a database, so anyone can find out when an article was created, and anyone can edit any portion of any article.
 * Don't write from a first person perspective. A random reader cannot easily verify the information created in the article, short of contacting the first author.
 * Anytime you reference an external website, you might want to creat an "External References" section and put it there.
 * Remember: sources, sources, sources.

Take care. Happy editing.

Who are you? Please see new comments in entry. Not sure what you mean in wanting to delete this, especially when it seems obvious that what irked you was my "deletion" tag. That's personal and has no bearing on the entry yet it does have bearing on it's author which yes, it me. Anyone can edit the entry but I feel editing the original definition contradicts the entry's true meaning which I have defined.

As for writing from first person, why not? It's from personal experience and considering my history involvement with the technology and the net society, I an qualified to say such things.

Hope that helps.
