Game: Kevin Bacon, Wikipedia style!
Alright, I just thought this up, and it seemed like such a great, fun idea to do in the internet, I had to share it with all you fine Gurus! You remember that old game where someone would say the name of a celebrity and you had to link that person with Kevin Bacon (or any other celebrity of your choice) by naming actors/actresses they were together with in movies?
Well, my idea is similar, but involves Wikipedia. Essentially, the first person (ideally me) gives two words, or 'things' (can be a phrase or movie title or state of being, whatever) that the next person has to link through Wikipedia's 'quick-links' from the starting page, and end up on the ending page. They then post on here the words they clicked through to get to the final page.
Hopefully I made it pretty clear, but if not, I'm going to do a short example:
Starting page: Wikipedia
Ending page: Ferret
Alright Here I go!
Wikipedia
1. Original Research
2. Chemical Element
3. Carbon
4. Life
5. Kingdom (biology)
6. Animal
7. List of animal names
Ferret
There we go! Relatively easy. Only 7 steps in-between. Alright, time for me to let this puppy loose.
Starting Page: Salt
Ending Page: Billy Bob Thornton
