I watched an episode of the vancouver based "Dotto's Data Cafe", and was
introduced to some Microsoft encyclopedia program (it was on cd, not the web
based version). I am interested in this program for myself but I am not sure
what the program is exactly. When the show originally aired, i think it was
around 2003 or something like that. It included a feature, allowing the
software to go online and automatically update itself with all the current
news. It also included a feature for viewing the curriculum for all
kindergarden to grade 12 students, so that you can click a grade, then click
a subject that will be taught in that grade.
Unfortunatly this is all I remmber about the product. I am quite sure that
Microsoft has only one kind of encylopedia program (but i could be wrong, i
dont know), and it is encarta. But if this program auomatically updates
itself with all the news, why does encarta have an update every here that you
buy? Like, I know there is encarta 2006 now.... I plan on purchasing the
program, but I want it to last a few years, not just one year... Please help
ASAP. thnx in advance.
