I have a question for everyone: when using Wikipedia, who among you simply types “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/” into the address bar with a word or two after the backslash to go directly to an article (for example, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_Red_Sox), rather than going to the main Wikipedia page and doing a search (or using Google)?
I’ve been doing the former for ages and am wondering if anyone else does.

Yeah, I used to do that, but now I just use the Wikipedia search engine widget for Firefox.
Where can I find that?
I use the Firefox widget too. Pull down the choices in the window and pick “Add Engines…” at the bottom.
I use the former but I’m a computer geek.
