Wikipedia Comparison

I think that Wikipedia is a very good resource for finding information about subjects. The "English" goes very far in depth, and sometimes gives too much information, but I like the links which are included so that people can check different areas of their subject to find further information. The "Simple English" is also very good but just gives very quick points of information.

The Encyclopedia Brittanica wasn't as useful as it did not include any photographs or visual aides and I like to look at visual information to help me understand clearer.
