    Really enjoyed

    reading this article! It's the first time I've had to consult a dictionary in a while, and I had the answer in the time it took me to type it out with a world of information and knowledge at my fingertips. It's what I look for on the web, mostly.

    Thanks for giving me some other things to think about, David Brin.
