1. Honestly, Wikipedia is a fairly new discovery for me. I didn't truly understand it and study it until college. When I first was interested in it, I heard nothing but negative things regarding Wikipedia. When I actually utilize Wikipedia it's usually via Wiki-Answers. For example, I'll search: How do I get a red stain out of my white shorts? After I hit search from Google, I'll get a hundred Wiki-Answers with blogs about people all over the world discussing how to get a stain out of their shorts. It's pretty incredible.
3. Society and cultural norms have changed drastically over the years. Years ago, people used to send one another letters in the mail expressing their love and thoughts for another person. People used to run or walk miles after miles just to give a friend a sincer hug. People used to call their family and friends and talk with them for hours. But, in recent years, society is definitely different. The reason I feel people give up their time so easily is because the Internet is a masterpiece. Just like back in the 60's (I'm pretty sure) when the telephone was invented. People were ALL about that telephone. Well, it's the same in todays's societey. People are ALL about the internet. It's just a matter of time change and what's new and exciting in world around us.
