My Contribution to Society
I did it! I made a lasting contribution to society. One that may live beyond me, and enrich the lives of future generations. I can now die happy, having fulfilled my purpose in life.
What did I do, you're asking? I made a contribution to http://www.wikipedia.com! For those not "in the know," wikipedia is an evolution of the encyclopedia. It is free, and accessible online. It differs, however, from traditional encyclopedias in that wikipedia is edited by the public. No stuffy editors sitting in library towers (though they are welcome to contribute, if they want). Wikipedia contains a vast amount of information, and studies have shown it is about as accurate as Britannica.
What did I add, you're asking (you can tell I have a knack for reading minds)? I edited the entry on
mouse by adding computer mouse in the "See also" section.
I was doing a search on "mouse" looking for information on computer mice. I found out that there was no referring link. I fixed that oversight.
Ahhhh, my work is done here.
