Sometime in the next few days or weeks, one of the world's most
comprehensive online reference sites will publish its 200,000th article.

most fascinating developments of the Digital Age. In just over three years
of existence, it has become a valuable resource and an example of how the
grass roots in today's interconnected world can do extraordinary things.
