Never expected to start getting referers from Wikipedia...
Category Everything Else
I was scanning through my non-search referers today, and I found one that stopped me dead in my tracks:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enron
I wasn't sure at first if that was a good or bad thing! Had I been tried and convicted without knowing it? Was I accused of financial shenanigans? Was I about to take a perp walk?
Nope... Down in the Trivia section of the entry, I'm listed as a blogger who commented on the on-going scandal. Very cool... I wasn't a Houston-based employee as it states, but that's a minor point.
So... guess I can cross "get mentioned in Wikipedia" off my list of life goals now... :)

I hate it when I have to do this, but shouldn't you fix it? Wikipedia is not a "they", but rather an "us".
Oh, never mind, I fixed it for you. But in the future, remember that social software requires something of "us", not just of "them".

I will admit that I didn't go right in and fix it as I've never updated Wikipedia before. Didn't mean I wouldn't have done it... Just that I hadn't done it yet.
Are you buying any of this yet?
And this also might be indicative of why I didn't think much of Lotus Connections when I first heard about it...
