Why I love the Wikipedia

I read Kottke, quite possibly the best blog on the Internet. He has a small post about an old photo of Helen Keller, which was rediscovered, apparently 4 days ago. This made me realize I didn't know an awful lot about Helen Keller apart from some tasteless jokes, so I checked out her wikipedia entry...

...where the photo discovered 4 days previously had already been inserted into the entry. Try that with Britannica.
