Geek Reviews: wittypedia

If you're not the very serious type of person when surfing the net (many people are too serious they think it's the end of the world if they don't find what they need. ;-)    ), or maybe if you need a break from absorbing too much information from wikipedia, how about a site that presents the funny side of the man's made world?

Enter http://www.wittypedia.com, where you find funny yet interesting articles. 

Here's a glimpse of the links that you can find when you go to that site: 

"Ready to browse? Just use the links on the left menu to;
  • Search for articles with Witty Search (top left of the page).
  • Click on Funny Articles for a page of finely crafted comedy masterworks... and be annoyed that it was replaced before you got there with a page of our favourite articles.
  • Ask Witty - want a funny article about something but prefer someone else to dig for the comedy gold lodged in the coal mine within their brains? Then suggest it here.
  • Wittypedia - if you're unlucky enough to come across one of the few funny articles that isn't, erm, funny, then you may need to escape quick! Click Wittypedia and be magically returned to the safety of this front page."

They do have frequent updates and a lot of tidbits and "do you know that..." stuff that's gonna make web browsing a lot "funnier". There's even "Ask Witty", that allows visitors to post curious questions. And yes, just like wikipedia, you can create and post your own articles as well (no serious articles allowed!).

So who says an encyclopedia has to be for geeks only?  :-)
