Contributions

I've done some work all over the place. I like to surf and find little things to fix, which means I do a lot of minor edits.
After I recovered from this bad trojan, I added a removal section.
I recently created a stub for the P & O Canal. That's the first article I've created.
Also, I'm into Lost so I've done some fancruft for the pertinent articles.

User Name Meaning

From the two ASCII characters carriage return and line feed which form CRLF. For example:

See that empty line above this one? If you were to copy that empty line into a simple text editor, all that it would have is a 10 and a 13, which your editor would interpret as a blank line. Geeky, huh? CRLF was used with signals sent to old computer printers, but the concept really comes from typewriters. I love the fact that contemporary technology still relies on technology paradigms of the past.

Interesting Links

There's this special page called Booksources that takes in an ISBN (eg Design Patterns ISBN 0-201-63361-2.) and refers you to worldwide resources for the book. Furthermore, you can create your own JavaScript file that will automatically redirect you to the book resource you choose. I wonder what other types of JavaScript functionality users can customize on Wikipedia?
