When you look at Google Maps these days, you’ll see links to Wikipedia articles (and tons of other stuff too!). Yet another reason to make sure your library has an article about it in Wikipedia. Check it out.

Just ran across Buzzword, a fairly new web-based word processor from Adobe. It has a very slick interface and lots of features. You can share your documents with others, designating them as “co-authors” with editing privileges, “reviewers” who can leave comments but not edit and “readers” who have read-only access. Multiple versions of a document are kept. The sample documents attest to some nice features and it certainly was easy to get started editing. Haven’t done a serious comparison to other online office apps like Google Docs or Zoho. Any have preferences for one over another? And why?
