Er... somebody asked why IMDB wasn't a wiki, which I hope was in jest, but just in case... IMDB predates wikis by quite a bit.
Still waking up here, not helped by an hour or so of insomnia in the middle of the night....
I didn't create the troll. I didn't date the troll. In fact I hate the troll. I helped deflate the troll-- All done.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I need to remember to cancel my subscription to Brittanica Online, which I've been paying for without using in the year since a fact-checking project was finished at work.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Somebody is me (I think -- I never actually asked that), and Brenda's right -- I said coulda.
The web interface to IMDB predates the first wiki by two years. Not *that* long, even in web time.
What online dictionary to people recommend? One of the reasons I keep my Britannica membership around is because Merriam Webster has made some of its words unfree, and the Britannica membership lets me have access.

I use the Dictionary Search extension for Firefox, with Merriam-Webster for back up.

Clearly I fail early morning reading comprehension. (Tho' I think there's a viable argument that two Internet years are not unlike Dog years.)
How come I felt so great after yoga yesterday and this morning I feel like I was run over by a bulldozer? Perhaps the real answer is to go to yoga every day....
