PSUMark2006 is trying to take a short wikibreak and will be back on Wikipedia sometime soon. Most likely, however, PSUMark2006 will not be able to keep away from Wikipedia for that long, and will probably be back a lot earlier while making some small edits every once in a while anyway.

The information age would replace tired ideas like voting, legislation, and territorial representation with flexible, consensus-driven rules, created by informal communities organized by interest and expertise rather than the arbitrary condition of location.

About me

I am currently finishing up my last year as an Information Sciences and Technology major at the Pennsylvania State University (University Park campus). I've been performing with the Penn State Blue Band for the past four years and have been playing the trumpet for twelve years now.

More to come soon as I get time to mess around with this page in between copy editing, monitoring recent changes, fighting vandals, and tinkering with random pages I come across that I happen to know bits and pieces about.

Tip of the day...

Running MediaWiki on your own computer

MediaWiki is the software that runs Wikipedia.

MediaWiki is opensource and is available for download for free. You can use it for offline access to the Wikipedia database, or to set up a wiki of your own.

However, MediaWiki requires other software to be able to run. The prerequisite programs are Apache/IIS, MySQL4 or later (5 or later as of version 1.19) and PHP5. When bundled together, these are referred to as AMP. They are also open source and free.

The Manual Installation Guide explains how to install MediaWiki from scratch.

Note that some users may find MediaWiki software bundles and MediaWiki hosting services with 1-click installation and wiki farms to be convenient alternatives to manual installation.
