I discovered Wikipedia in 2005, shortly after I got my first pc and went online. I mostly use it for looking up info (I'm not much of a writer), but soon I joined to at least contribute to the articles by adding links and correcting typos, grammar and vandalism. For me Wikipedia is an example of the internet at it's best: all users contributing and sharing info. Other internet projects I'm enjoying are BOINC and Electric Sheep.

Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift

"Wildest Dreams" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift (pictured); it is the fifth single from her fifth studio album, 1989 (2014). Described by critics as synth-pop, dream pop, and electropop, the song was written by Swift and its producers Max Martin and Shellback. The lyrics feature Swift pleading with a lover to remember her even after their relationship ends. Retrospectively, critics have described "Wildest Dreams" as one of Swift's most memorable songs. The single peaked within the top five on charts in Australia, Canada, Poland, South Africa, and also the United States, where it became 1989's fifth consecutive top-ten single on the Billboard Hot 100. The track was certified four-times platinum. The music video depicts Swift as a classical Hollywood actress who falls in love with her co-star; media publications praised the production as cinematic but accused the video of glorifying colonialism.
