What did you Wiki today?
Wikipedia - I now love it - can't get enough of it, often reading one thing after another.
Because of Saturdays show I've been reading up on Shakespeare - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Shakespeare
But was interested to find out there is a missing play which has never been found, kind of the Tenth Planet Episode 4 of the Bard - it's called Loves Labour Won ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love%27s_Labour%27s_Won
Also because I was listening to Circular Time, I've been looking up Isaac Newtons history in the Royal Mint ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac_newton
Which led me to look up Johannes Kepler - who my History of Astronomy lecturer always told me was the inspiration for the Master with his goatee beard. A gifted mathematician with a nasty past (possibly killing his teacher Tycho Brahe) who even put his wife on the game so he had drinking money - all lies it seems! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johannes_KeplerLast edited by WhiteCrow; 4th Apr 2007 at 11:51 PM.

There's an interesting episode where they meet Bergerac... a special TV show cross-over if ever there was one!

I wiki'd Joan of Arc yesterday - it was fascinating reading about her life. She was executed aged just 19, but her bravado and significance (for an uneducated peasant) is still remembered today.

I've been looking into the Chronology of Shakespeare Plays - the order is not really known ...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronol...kespeare_plays
1594-1597 Love's Labour's Won
In Francis Meres' 1598 list of Shakespeare plays. In Christopher Hunt's August 1603 booklist. A lost play.
