Hey, all. I wanted to plug our astronomy themed wiki Slackerpedia
Galactica at this URL: http://www.slackerastronomy.org/slac....php/Main_Page It's been up since September and we have about 500 articles from around 87 users. The idea behind it is to create a version of Wikipedia but themed on astronomy with both a sense of humor and factual accuracy. We've been building the site the last few months and now we're ready to formally promote it. This week we presented a poster on it at the 209th AAS meeting in Seattle (which can be viewed at the URL above). Anyone can contribute and it runs the same software as Wikipedia. So if you've used Wikipedia, you can use our site too. We're always looking for new users, articles, images, etc. Please consider stopping by to take a look. Thanks!
