Did you know that Wikipedia isn't all that the people over at "Wiki" have to offer? I didn't. I guess I don't always trust what is written on Wikipedia, so I haven't investigated it, much. There are public domain pictures, a university (?), dictionary, books and all kinds of things that I haven't checked out, yet. Maybe when I get all that free time back, eh???
So, Aaron teaches history and he is always in need of pictures of historic stuff.(Great technical term, huh?) He uses the pics on his class web page, so he wants ones that are public domain or otherwise won't get him sued! Well, he told me about Wikimedia Commons. They have thousands (maybe millions??) of pictures that are available for any use you want. It is fun to have pictures of whatever you want and publish them on your blog! I love it!
(Rice Terraces in China! I've been fascinated by them for a long time!)

This would be a perfect tip to post over at Rocks in my Dryer for WOrks for me Wednesday - it's a great idea.
I know what you mean about not trusting Wikipedia, but I find myself using it more often as a quick reference than I should these days. Thats pretty cool about the pictures!
Very cool
Nifty! I've never heard of that - thanks for the link!
Ok, I thought those rice terraces were a stained glass window landscape. Too cool.
