Sunday 8th July

I enjoyed my Saturday night discovering the whole new world of social searching. Once again I am flabbergasted at this other world existing via our computer screen and bought to life by our keyboard.
I had never realised that Amazon's way of selling - suggesting another book from a similiar genre or using their own sale records had the name social searching.
I got pretty well entrenched in the questions and answers and did post a question on Yahoo as to "when did the termRSVP come into use and what does it mean and how has it spread into everyday language". I am awaiting the email response!

I got involved with all of the questions and answers in "Slamming the Boards" and the "Answering Board Wiki". It was a real bonus for me to find the www.answers.com site.  I have for many years tried to find a way of easy access to information as to historical occurrences / annivrsaries / birth and death dates on each day of the year. This site provided me with this access by choosing the "History Politicis and Society" category I was able to discover the Chase's Calendar.
A Saturday night well spent.
