Fun Wikipedia game. [More:]Posted by a friend on another forum:

Sort of a 'Six Degrees...' game, with a slight twist. Instead of using the Search to get to your desired page, you must start with the featured article of the day, and create a link through the Wikipedia ether to the page in question.

Example:

Desired page: Saturn V
Featured Article: Quneitra

Quneitra > TIME Magazine > Person of the Year > Apollo 8 crew > Saturn V

Now go forth and educationally waste your time!

ETA:
Quneitra > TIME Magazine > Time Warner subsidiaries > New Line Cinema > Snakes on a Plane > Samuel L Jackson > Jurassic Park > Bob Peck > British Film Actors > Patrick Stewart > Star Trek TNG Screech



Heres mine:

Desired page: Frank Zappa
Featured Article: Quneitra

Quneitra
Alexey Kosygin
December 18
The Cars
1970s
Experimental music
Computer music
Sampling (music)
Sampler (musical instrument)
