Clickz

I just read this article on clickz about how some people feel that the attention span of people is diminishing and that the idea of "snack-o-tainment" is taking over. The article explains that people only give things a very small window of attention and that this trend is leading to new forms of entertainment that is short and quick. However I, on the other hand, dislike short snippets of entertainment and enjoy long epic entertainment such as the video game Grand Theft Auto and long movies like Apocolypse Now Redux. I was glad to see that the article claimed that marketers who simply are changing over to short entertainment are making a mistake becuase there are many people like myself who like entertainment in its long drawn out entirety.

I have edited the wikipedia article discussing the game Beer Pong which in my opinion the by far the best and most competitive drinking game. The part of the article that I edited was in respect to the offensive shot known as "the bounce." I added that depending on 'house rules' that bounce may be worth two or more cups. I also added a little hint on how to shoot a good bounce shot.

I have edited an article on wikipedia about the New York Yankees, here is a link Wikipedia Yankees Article. I simply added some personal insight as to why the Yankees are hated throughout the country and gave a brief explanation as to why their payroll is so large.

I just completed my first wikipedia post. I know im behind so I have a lot of catching up to do. I just edited the wikipedia article on racquetball, which is my favorite sport. I try to play as much as possible becuase it is a tremendous workout. Anyway, there was no mention on how to determine who receives first serve so I decided to put some idea that I use in there. Wikipedia racquetball article.
