Updates, and planning

Trying to fight the Urge to Wiki, I am going to start paying attention here.
  • I have made the template (layout, look-and-feel) a little lighter, with headings becoming smaller and less "heavy".
  • I have added a link to the Spider Blog from Pakistan to the right-hand column on this page [look under "Listening to Dem Po' Folk"].
Topics I intend to discuss often include:
and similar topics.

Engaging with the Wikipedia is a addictive; it gets in the way of this and other writing. I have gone to fighting the urge.

Progress, however, is steady :D. See:

WikiWikiWiki WikiWikiMe!

Growing up on the periphery (with the occasional foray, of course, into the heart) of, three or four different societies/cultures/civilizations/what-have-you, one often felt that encyclopedias and the other canons of modern life did not do justice to the world as one say it. Finally, there's an encyclopedia to end that; the Wikipedia that I have mentioned before. I think I am there to stay as a member of that community. You can follow my presence there at my User page on that system. Might even tell you a few things about me you didn't know and didn't care enough about to ask :D.

In particular, I have a list on the above page that describes Wikipedia Content I recommend highly.
