I discovered Wikipedia in 2005, shortly after I got my first pc and went online. I mostly use it for looking up info (I'm not much of a writer), but soon I joined to at least contribute to the articles by adding links and correcting typos, grammar and vandalism. For me Wikipedia is an example of the internet at it's best: all users contributing and sharing info. Other internet projects I'm enjoying are BOINC and Electric Sheep.

Saint Patrick's Cathedral, Karachi
Saint Patrick's Cathedral is the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Karachi, and is located near the Empress Market in Saddar, a neighbourhood of Karachi, Pakistan. The cathedral was completed in 1881 and can accommodate 1,500 worshippers. It celebrated its centenary in 1978. In December 1998, the interior of the cathedral was partially damaged in a bomb attack that also injured one woman. This photograph of the interior of Saint Patrick's Cathedral, looking towards the high altar, was taken in 2020.Photograph credit: Alexander Savin

European rabbit

The European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) is a species of rabbit native to the Iberian Peninsula and southwestern France. It is the sole living member of the genus Oryctolagus and has two subspecies. The European rabbit eats plants and lives in grasslands, and is highly adaptable to different environments, making its distinctive burrows known as warrens to live underground. It is the only species of rabbit to be domesticated, and the many breeds of European rabbit vary widely in size and shape, though the typical European rabbit has brown, grey or black fur with white undersides and is smaller than a European hare or mountain hare. In the European rabbit's mating system, dominant males have multiple female mates, though monogamous relationships are common in groups with fewer females. European rabbits have been introduced to every continent except for Antarctica, but are facing population declines in their native range due to overhunting, habitat destruction, and disease.
