The bright side to this is the hopeful increase in efficiency, or, in the worst case, the inculcation of the habit of reading ebooks and lengthy texts (like the posts on my other blog) without having to take print-outs.
Most of the information that I need, I discovered, including hajjar trivia is anyway present on wikipedia, and I must thank God for wikis, just like I was grateful for television onceupon a time ago. They are life-savers, in the truest sense of the word. Reliance on songfacts and IMDB has almost faded away because the wikipedia pages contain all the necessary and relevant information required.
As a good pal of mine, MonkeeTM put it – ‘if it doesn’t have a page on wikipedia, its not worth knowing about!‘. As a converse to the same, everything worth knowing about has an associated wikipedia page.
PS:
To MonkeeTM: Congrats on putting MBA.
