The Death of the Encyclopedia

DEATH of ENCYCLOPEDIA

Making an encyclopedia used to be a big job. first, a commpany used surveys to find out about new topics in different fields. then, the company hired experts to write article about the topics. the experts defined new ideas and terms and explained their new topics. Editors read the pieces and made change to the text. The pieces were put together in many volumes. Finally, salespeople went from house to house to sell the encyclopedia.The company paid for everything, so all the writing in encyclopedia was the company's property.Then, in 2001, Wikipedia caused a major shift. Wikipedia doesn't depend on sales. It ask people to give money , and those contributions pay for everything. instead of experts, wikipedia allows the users to write about anyhing. Instead of editors, the correct any mistakes they see. The encyclopedia company uses the law to protect its text. The debate today is whether the chanes caused by Wikipedia are good for society or not. Most people are happy to use Wikipedia for free. But are they aware that many people have lost paid work because of this? Wikipedia coused many encyclopedia companies to go out of business. is this a good thing? Wikipedia caused a big change in one industry. Will a similiar process change others?

election day

             Hello, today I will tell about the general elections held at my place. In every 5 years, the Indonesian state has a general election to elect the president, vice president, legislative council and the regional council.
