Wikipedia Comparison
When I went to Wikipedia and type in "computer", all I got was one article and the history was included. It gave me background on computers from 1940-1945. It also gave me information on how large the computer use to be to the size they are now and how they consumed alot of power.
When I went to the Britannica site and type in "computer" so many sites popped up about computers that I didn't even know where to begin to look for the information that I had seem on wikipedia.

Modify activity Befunky
I would use the computer lab at the end of the year and have the students to use blogger.com to create a blog and then befunky to add pictures to describe how they are feeling since school is about out.
