Words fail me, so have some pictures

This makes me smile a lot:



Funny that I had forgotten Encarta. At its time, it was such a cool, useful thing. (Though now it's laughable -- You too could pay money for what's free on the net!)

I keep wanting to remove dailyreenactor from my friends list, because they post so many pictures a day, but they're all good pictures!

So many different time periods, costumes, details! They may spam my friends list, but I love every post.

Encarta! I remember using it in elementary school at home for projects. o: I hated how they only ever seemed to have blurbs about interesting things. :c

I still remember the video clips and sounds they had all over the place in it. I think every three pages had at least one video or sound clip.

I'm so glad Wikipedia replaced it. :x

Encarta was just biding it's time until the SOPA blackout protest. Now it's back from the grave and it's hungry for knowledge. You see what you've done politicians?! You've doomed us all!

*laughs* Yes. Wikipedia is so much better in all ways, but for its time, it was something.

But just think! Once Wiki is shut down, we'll all be thankful for Encarta95!

Oh god, it's already got to you...

The Internet on a couple CDs! What's not to like!

That's a cool reenactor pic! I would love to do like a period shoot costume thing with horses like that, but that is a dream for another time, I think (seeing as at this point I have no costumes made). XD

Also looool Encarta. I remember that! Or.. trying to use that. And realizing that one CD-ROM is not enough to hold all of the world's random information.

With all your pretty horses, you'd get lots of great shots. :D
