Wikipedia. Despite the naysayers, it’s the greatest living resource on the planet (and yes, it is alive). But with that blessing comes its most heinous curse - you go there for one thing (an update on season seven of The Shield, say) and 3-4 hours later, find yourself enthusiastically reading about anarcha-feminism or 99 flakes.
We’ll label this phenomenon six degrees of Wikiation, perhaps.
But what in blue blazes happened in between?
Ben over at Slyfox has fashioned a great little script that allows one to successfully track this insufferable meandering and, better still, the code compiles a nifty little flowchart thingy for you to look upon in wonder.
This will be especially benefical after those post-midnight drunken Wiki ramblings where you wake up hours later the next day to find your monitor still proudly sporting the page on Briana Banks. At least you’ll be able to show your wife you started with Henry David Thoreau.
