I'm just about to depart for Egypt! Yay!
This is the place, Ain Soukhna (some 60km soutch of Suez Channel) and the hotel - Stella di Mare.
If I get reaaally bored, I may as well post some pictures.

Wikipedia has without a doubt become a medium for rapid and considated information gathering, which is a just a fancier way ;-) to name something that is so easy to use and edit, while being accessible to anyone and targeted to defining anything.
Yup, Wikipedia is becoming a magnet for information about anything, making it easy to be up-to-date with that same anything. I'm beginning to wonder how will the schools look in 10 years from now further convergence of technologies. I do not have the vaguest idea.
I mean, imagine newer generations of mobile phones with more bandwith, processor power, more intuitive user interfaces making them easier to use for accessing any content on the Internet.
Apart as a major source of pretty relevant information, Wikipedia could server many other purposes.
If I look at Vox, I could safely say I'm an early adopter. It's not that its in Preview, rather it's because it's been less than one month it has an entry in Wikipedia. ;-) I could call this a litmus test for early adoption.
Any other interesting unintended uses of Wikipedia?

Testing Vox. I'd like to know it better and to see if my relationship with Vox will go beyond flirting.
I'm all into adding interactivity into webspace, which is to say I like trying out various Web 2.0 services. Well, this is also a chance to kick some tires, understand the machine under the hood, recognize its potential and limitations.
I've heard about Six Apart some time (2 years?) ago and learned more about the left brain hemisphere behind it via a podcast. Having never used their software until now, I wonder how blogging software and bells and whistles attached to it justify price tags on it. Anyone got clues?
Anyway, first impressions about Vox are positive.
