RE: Time for a challenge? (in reply to Ricardo)

quote:
Here is a challenge....goes along with "internet is in danger" thread. Turn off the computer for one week. Listen to CDs or records or whatever, but no websites or youtube. (of course work related things, banking and bills if you must...although I recommend even try doing that the old fashioned way too. ). The time you spend on line downloading sharing or surfing etc...spend with the guitar instead. After the week is done, turn on computer, make a vid of what you have worked on and share it. The challenge is can you get by with zero internet actually. I could not agree more, Ricardo! And since you have already hijacked this "challenge" thread, allow me to continue it by suggesting that anyone engaged in researching a topic, do some real research by actually delving into primary sources and stop using Wikipedia as a crutch. Much of Wikipedia is really an "Encyclopedia of Misinformation" anyway, as much of it is simply wrong or misleading. I had to laugh at some who thought Wikipedia's closing down yesterday was the end of the world. In fact, it did everyone a favor by forcing those needing information to go to some legitimate sources for their information. Cheers, Bill
