Wikipedia Random Article


Lately, I've wasted far too much time reading random articles on Wikipedia. I'd like to share my sickness with you.




Once you arrive at the site, you can keep selecting more random articles by choosing 'random' on the navigation pane on the left side of the screen (the 5th choice down), or you may find yourself chasing down some chain of associations linked within the article itself.

When I was a kid, one of the things I loved doing was, when visiting my grandparents, reading through the Encyclopedia Britannica set they owned. This is sort of like that, but easier to cross-reference, and far larger. And open source.
