If You Haven't Wiki'd in Awhile

Wikimedia is not merely about creating an exhaustively cute and comprehensive little webby encyclopedia. If you haven’t wiki’d in awhile, there are all kinds of interesting experiments and projects going on all the time. But then, this from a kid who thought it fun to read the dictionary like any other story book, so you’ve gotta’ consider the source.

Wikibooks: Book of the Month.

Wiki Book of The Month, September 2006 is Cognitive Psychology and Cognitive Neuroscience. “The book is a collaboration work of the CPCN course at the University of Osnabrueck. It covers a wide range of different topics concerning brain, human behaviour and their interaction.”

Wikispecies: Because LIFE is Public Domain technology … for now, anyway.

Wikispecies “is meant to become an open, free directory of species. This will cover Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Bacteria, Archaea, Protista and all other forms of life to the extent that our users allow us. So far [it includes] 70,243 articles.”

Wikiversity (beta): Open Minds, Open Doors.

Wikiversity “subject areas and schools include: Engineering · Fine Arts · Humanities · Interdisciplinary Studies · Life Sciences · Physical Sciences · Mathematics · Social Sciences · Practical Arts and Sciences.”

Yes, it’s also true that September 19 is both International Talk Like A Pirate Day and RUSH Feature Day on the main Wikipedia page!
