C'mon, Get Happy

Three things to be happy about:

Wikipedia

Pandora

Havaianas.

UPDATE (6/22/06): Here is a New York Times article on Wikipedia. Of course, some of the Wikipedia entries won't be perfect. But most that I've referenced have been superb. And considering that Encyclopedias used to cost thousands of dollars (and become outdated quickly), Wikipedia is miraculous.

As for Havaianas, let's see what Wikipedia has to say on the subject. 2 billion pairs! That would circle the globe 50 times.

O.K. Wikipedia is great, the music site (Pandora) is cool, but sandals? That one I don't get.

Boing Bong (boingboing.net) points out that the Times article has at least one mistake in it: the part about the so-called "new" lock-down features.

The political and religion pages on Wikipedia can be a hoot sometimes. Look at the discussion tab on any well-known or even less-known politician or religion and you'll see people get quite heated about what is written.
