Wikipedia

I adore Wikipedia. Every time I go to search something, I'll usually Google it first but Wikipedia is usually the first link to pop up. I go to Wikipedia to search for everything. There are some things that Wikipedia doesn't have, but that's what Google is for. I think Wikipedia is great because it's so easy to use and to comprehend. The only downside to it is that anyone can edit information in, so you're not really sure if all of the information is correct or true in the articles you read on there. I think the majority of professors aren't comfortable with students using Wikipedia as a source because anyone can edit it. It's not a 'secure' site where you know the information is going to be true facts. I use Wikipedia way too much. I go on there if I can't figure out the name of a book or an author of a book or for anything really. If I can't think of something, I'll usually say, "Let's Wiki it." and if Wikipedia fails me, "Okay, I'll Google it instead." And by 'anyone can edit it', I mean anyone. I can go in and edit a wiki page, but so can other websites. They can go in and correct any wrong information that may be on there. I love Wikipedia.
