This is a really good website to help spread out the information that wikipedia generally gives to you in a block of information. It takes away all the unnecessary information and links and pretty much just turns a couple of paragraphs into an easy to read set of dot points. although the website doesn't look all that good and the simplified text that they produce is not very appealing it does the job and gives you what you want without the use of proper English.
Although it is great I think that it is a bit risky, generally because it could leave out some information that is vital to the topic.
Additionally, because they are leaving out certain bits of text it is not as coherent as the actual website. however to combat this they have provided two windows, one of the actual wikipedia page and another of the simplified version, so that people can make sure that they are being fed the correct information.
Overall this is a really good website that helps heaps at gathering information that would otherwise be hard to find amongst all of wikipedia's thick text.
