Here’s a website I recently stumbled upon while searching for, I must confess, reviews on anti-dandruff shampoos. It’s called wikiHow and it is an endeavor “to build the world’s largest, highest quality how-to manual.” One of the reasons I became a librarian is my desire to know how to do everything, so this could possibly be my Bible.
The project currently 23,076 articles on range of categories such as Arts & Entertainment, Cars & Other Vehicles, Finance & Business, Family Life, Home & Garden, Relationships, Sports & Fitness, and Teenagers. Do you want to know how to get out of debt? Are you dying to know how to cause a straw wrapper to wriggle like a worm? How to side manual (A side manual is when you ride your skateboard on two wheels, but on the side, not the back)? It’s all right here.
A reservation to consider is, as with any collaborative effort on the Internet such as Wikipedia or any other wiki, the inherent fact that anyone is able to add or edit the entries. Are the authors of the entry qualified to instruct you in the best, most efficient manner of, for example, making chainmail, applying false eyelashes, or shining stainless steel appliances? You decide.
