User:Maladroitly.serious: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 06:10, 24 June 2008

There I was, seated at my computer, when, after searching for something on Google, I saw a Wikipedia User page. Oddly enough, it hadn't occurred to me that I could just sign up and contribute, however minutely, to Wikipedia, the same Wikipedia that helped me complete assignments, look up words, and keep me up to date on current events...I was shocked. I could do that?! Seriously? So here I am...
