While not being a replacement for traditional encyclopedias, Wikipedia.com is a great place for people to be able to look up information on a variety of topics and to gain the general understanding if different topics. They provide access to different references where more information can be obtained, fun facts, and useful information for students and scholars alike.
Their website has already paved the way for new forms of internet technology that allow for users to edit the content of a website and collaborate to come up with the correct information. Wikipedia is edited by the people for the people and is an example of a democratic website that is working.
Unlike other websites, last.fm provides users with the ability to reach out to new artists while listening to music that suits one's own tastes. I have found many different songs that I enjoy through this website and feel that it has helped me become more informed with the artists that I like to listen to. It's great being able to listen to commercial free music while giving money back to the bands through the advertisements and last.fm does a lot for the music industry for recognition.
topseos.com helped me find the right SEO firm for my company while other SEO firms were unable to deliver. It has substantially helped me with bringing in new customers and driving traffic to my website. Viewing their rankings and criteria helped me better understand how to pick the right company for the job as opposed to the wrong company.
