With 7.9 million articles in 253 languages and a tag-line that reads "the free encyclopedia that anyone can change," it is pretty much guaranteed that all Wikipedia edits and content changes cannot be monitored.
According to The New York Times, there were unexplained edits to a Wikipedia entry including the SeaWorld theme parks to change the word “orcas” to “killer whales," which was considered more accurate. These changes were found to originate from the computer of Anheuser-Busch, SeaWorld’s owner. Dozens of other similar edits have been found through WikiScanner, a website that is used to trace the digital fingerprints left behind from Wikipedia edits and find out where they originated.
I'm always amazed at how well kids these days know their way around a computer (oh man, just typing that makes me feel old, but it's true). Thankfully Crayola is catching up with the times by incorporating a new line of tech products for kids, which are bright, durable, and totally kid-friendly. Discussed on engadget, these new products include a $50 Crayola EZ Grip digital camera which comes with a 1.3-inch screen, a Crayola Type n Learn, a color-coded USB keyboard for $30, an EZ Click mouse for $15 and a $10 EZ Frame mouse pad which can also be used as a picture frame. The only product available right now is the camera, but the rest will be here before Christmas.
Here's another Website of the Day that is very similar to YoName because it will help you find people (or people find you) on various social-networking pages or websites. PeekYou acts as as search engine that indexes over fifty million profiles on the web and includes countries such as India, China, USA, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. It's very easy to use and yes, the perfect site to find that ex-boyfriend you've been wondering about!

Other hits include Michael Jackson's Moonwalker, which Phil notes isn't his favorite game, but is worth remembering. Touché, Phil. Touché.
To quote Super Mario 64: "Thank you so much for to playing my game!" Now check out everyone's favorite games in the widget below and go search for your Sega Genesis and Nintendo 64 in the garage.
I can't say I regularly tote around miniSD cards, but if this fun holder could carry a USB stick, I'd be all for it. These card eating straps which I saw on OhGizmo! can be attached to cell phones and cameras so you know exactly where your memory card is at all times. Maybe not as bling as the Louis Vuitton charm but much more practical and user-friendly than the cell phone cuffs! Priced at $10.
Sure everyone wants to know how fast they type, or how to type faster, but is a large desk accessory that lights up while you type the right diagnostic tool? This USB-powered desk lamp from Solid Alliance fluctuates between a golden color and a brighter blue as your typing speed intensifies. Presumably it's meant to encourage you to keep your typing speed in the blue zone, and while it's not particularly hideous, I'm not sure I'd set it up in my office. Would you use it as a typing aid?
