After the Flood Response

After The Flood 
James Gleick

(B) write about how Wikipedia is both similar to, and different from, traditional print-based libraries.

Similarities: they contain a collection of various information of different subjects

differences: 

wikepedia: faster, on screen info, info is summarized

libraries: slower when it comes to searching for information, physical information rather than on screen, the information is denser than what you would find on wiki if you were to research a certain topic
