I was scanning and scanning and I just decide to give this site and try and I found nothing really related to what I was looking for. However, this person really created a wonderful site for AnimeFans, yeah, we all need to discuss this, huh? Guess so. So, cool, Wikipedia is the bomb, right, with 26% of seraches about Anime. I gotta check out that site, thanks for all the info.!! =) P.S. How did this publisher found out so much geek stuff?

I run the Tenchi Muyo! FAQ site, so my site is going to have detailed information about the canon TM!R series from Kajishima-sensei. That said, it is a niche site and while good for canon Tenchi fans, what about all those other titles? I use Wiki a lot, especially when I'm writing reviews. Mainly, I can't remember character names or am looking for proper spelling. For some titles it is great but for other titles, it is sparse. But it does allow fans of series to contribute information to a central site without having to pay hosting costs (something I have to do). Still, Wiki has problems. I blogged about the Wikipedia Nazi's who in the name of following the rules, do stupid things like rename CLAMP to "Clamp" (details on my blog). I've seen idiots remove images for dumb reasons and wars start for that. I've seen people state decide that because the official English manga for a title translated a characters name, that's the only name that can be used for the article. It doesn't matter that the official English anime version didn't translate the name because this person has determined the ONLY version of the name that is correct. Anyway, I won't waste more time ranting on this here as I've already done so <a href="http://astronerdboy.blogspot.com/2007/03/clamp-vs-clamp-wikipedia-war.html" rel="nofollow"> here.</a> Using Wiki to search for anime makes sense because it has so many anime titles listed there.

In fact, I use firefox's keyword search feature for both sites extensively, which is pretty darn convenient. >>I’ve learned a lot about networking just so I can get optimal transfer speeds from my router… just so I can get my Gurren Lagann fix minutes sooner. I don’t think I’m alone. Oh god, how true of me too. Especially when you're on an ISP which regularly mistreats it's customers, every little trick you can find out for improving connection quality instantly becomes second nature. I have my ISP's best IP ranges, DNS and many other generic router settings in my head that I could probably look in to becoming a network admin XD.

You said: “Some of the top car desighners watch anime for ideas.”

I quoted that and asked: “Wait, which car designers watch anime. I’m not doubting you, I just want to know where you read this and who specifically you are talking about.”

Personally, I was into technology before I got into anime, but your logic of how anime viewers become techosavy certainly makes sense. I've fixed up a couple wikipedia pages about anime myself (Angelic Layer is my greatest achievement - just look at the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Angelic_Layer&oldid=29605900" rel="nofollow">before</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Angelic_Layer&oldid=66400609" rel="nofollow">after</a> over the course of a few months). Wikipedia is usually THE first place I go to look up info about a series. If not first, it's second after ANN. Yeah, I saw this and was kind of surprised.
