Site of the Day for Thursday, September 22, 2016
Reference.com
Today's site offers a more traditional and standard source of information than
what has now come to be expected as the typical way of finding answers -- the
ubiquitous search engine, and of course, Wikipedia. Gentle Subscribers will
find this secondary resource may prove useful for turning up answers for more
outre (accent omitted) questions.
"Reference.com is the #1 question answering service that delivers the best
answers from the web and real people - all in one place" - from the website
Pleasantly designed, the publication delivers an extensive list of topics, from
broad headings such as Arts & Literature to Vehicles, with comprehensive
sub-topics under each. Accompanied by excellent photos the competently written
text provides helpful answers in clear, easy to understand responses. Whimsical
questions -- what's the difference between pixies and fairies? -- do werewolves
really exist? -- are treated as coming from the same spirit of inquiry as those
dealing with more serious subjects, for example, what materials Michelangelo
used, and why the Hoover Dam was built.
