Wikipedia Query (w/poll)

Wed Jul 23, 2008 at 04:42:57 AM PDT

Fellow Kossacks, you could do me a quick favor here. I've been thinking lately about what I called, in a post at another blog,

a new "digital divide" I sense arising. (The first and still pre-eminent one, of course, is economic--the haves online, the have-nots cut out). The one I will be commenting on is more along generational and net-savviness lines, with many folks I know shying away, for a variety of reasons, from a lot of the interactive developments collectively called "Web 2.0".

Of all the facets of Web 2.0 (including the debate over whether or not there is such a thing), far and away the best known and most widely used is Wikipedia. I've not figured out how to frame an easy-to-click multiple choice poll with two or more initial states, so I'll ask your indulgence here, and if you have anything to add on your personal use of (relationship to?) Wikipedia, I'd appreciate your throwing in a comment below.
