#encyclopediacontent

With this idea of recording and documenting in mind, I want to create a website that collates all kinds of records and archives from several sources that fit different categories. For example, a category of quantum theory, a category of food, a category of snakes etc. Essentially, an online encyclopedia. Content will be drawn from Encyclopedia.com.

·       Categories will be represented by images changing through a slideshow 

My idea reflects being online and thinking digitally as it takes some of the most important things in history and the present and makes them all accessible on the one web page instead of multiple pages in different books.

Cake, baked from flour with added fat (butter or margarine), sugar, and eggs. Plain cakes are made by rubbing the fat and sugar into the flour, with no egg; sponge cakes by whipping with or without fat; rich cakes contain dried fruit.

Absinthe, an emerald-green liqueur distilled from wormwood and other aromatics, including angelica root, sweet-flag root, star anise, and dittany, which have been macerated and steeped in alcohol. It was invented in the 1790s by a Dr. Pierre Ordinaire, a Frenchman who lived in Switzerland, and the liqueur became enormously popular, particularly in late-19th-century Paris. Genuine absinthe is 70% to 80% alcohol.

Basketball can make a true claim to being the only major sport that is an American invention. At the heart of the game is the playing space and the equipment. The space is a rectangular, indoor court. The principal pieces of equipment are the two elevated baskets, one at each end (in the long direction) of the court, and the basketball itself. The ball is spherical in shape and is inflated. Basket-balls range in size from 28.5-30 in (72-76 cm) in circumference, and in weight from 18-22 oz (510-624 g).

Earring, a personal adornment, sometimes an amulet, worn attached to the ear lobe. Since prehistoric times the ear has been pierced for the insertion of the earring; certain primitive tribes distort the lobe with plugs several inches in diameter or with heavy stones. Egyptians first wore large gold hoops, which eventually became smaller and supported pendants.
