Came across numerous blogs on Wikis. Debate rages on whether Wikipedia is a reliable source and a university lecturer preaches that it should not be solely relied upon for accurate content. It is taking a pummeling from competitors. An alternative to emerge recently is Digital Universe - offering portals such topics as the Cosmos, Human Rights and the Artic. Paid experts will oversee the creation of content, and editors will approve other editors. A blogger claims that it offers a way to finding a cure for Chronic Information Fatigue! You will be able to type in your age to retrieve "age specific" information.....scary! At my age I'm inclined to lie about it!!
lso from LooneyNews.com, I found a debate over Dewey. A library in Arizona has dropped the Dewey decimal system for subject headings that more resemble a bookstore. A librarian wrote that she wasn't not necessarily a fan of DDS, but that she couldn't find what she was looking for at most big name bookstores.
