Wikipedia

I'm hooked on the Wikipedia at the moment. Even more than usual, I mean. Lots of conversations or articles lead to a quick search. Here's some stuff I looked up recently.

  • Polyphasic sleep, mentioned in a blog somewhere. It means sleeping in short naps of around 20–45 minutes throughout the day. This allows for more waking hours with relatively high alertness. If I'm ever unemplyed I might try this.
  • Freemasonry and Rosicrucian. A colleague of mine visited one of the Freemason lodges (during an open house day) and I couldn't put my finger on the exact difference between the two. It also led to this quite interesting article.
  • Read an article on the work of Alfons Mucha and I was quite taken with his work.
  • Nikola Tesla was mentioned in a Slashdot article, I think. Hadn't heard of him before, and that's actually a shame.
