Comment on It's Evolving, Just Backwards

Carnegie steel was bought and renamed to US steel. That was fairly successful. The only reason I know that is because Wikipedia is the few websites unblocked at work and this week i was reading about famous people between 1850-1900

  You play the Wikipedia game? That’s fun for about 10 minutes. Where you try to get from one random page to another only clicking links and do it as few as possible.
