Get Random Wikipedia articles in your browser

If you are like me, which would be unfortunate, you’d find yourself going to Wikipedia as a source of truth for lot of information that you want to look up.

Well, you might even have your browser’s homepage set to open Wikipedia on startup. Well, you can do one step better. Add this to your homepage instead and you will open a random page in Wikipedia every time you hit ‘Home’ in your browser.

If you use Mozilla Firefox as your web browser, (if you don’t, I highly recommend you try it) you might have used the ‘StumbleUpon‘ extension. This extension brings you websites that you might not have come across before in the categories you are interested in. The above URL does it to Wikipedia what StumbleUpon does to the web.

Enjoy!
