Personally he have found WIKIPEDIA - The Free Encyclopedia to be a very useful website over time.
Wikipedia is certainly a good starting-point for finding out information and learn many interesting things, which you must then check against other sources, because some articles might have errors, incoherencies, and bias in them. You also should be aware that some great non-biased articles here may have been marked as being biased, and there are also some hoaxes to trick you. Please, see Criticism of Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is a good idea because it can be edited by anyone and it is free. It is also an interesting exercise (like a strategy computer game).
George Town is the capital of the Malaysian state of Penang, encompassing Penang Island and surrounding islets. With a population of 794,313 as of the 2020 census, it is the core city of Malaysia's second-largest metropolitan area, which has a population of 2.84 million. George Town serves as the commercial centre for northern Malaysia. Its technological sector, anchored by hundreds of multinational companies, has made the city the top exporter in the country. It was the first British settlement in Southeast Asia, and its proximity to maritime routes along the Strait of Malacca attracted an influx of immigrants from various parts of Asia. In 1974, the city was merged with the rest of the island, throwing its administrative status into doubt until 2015, when its jurisdiction was reinstated and expanded to cover the entire island and adjacent islets. UNESCO designated the city centre of George Town as a World Heritage Site in 2008. (Full article...)
Ethel Smyth (1858–1944) was an English composer and a member of the women's suffrage movement. Her compositions include songs, works for piano, chamber music, orchestral works, choral works and operas. Smyth's extensive body of work includes the Concerto for Violin, Horn and Orchestra, and the Mass in D. Her opera The Wreckers is considered by some critics to be the "most important English opera composed during the period between Purcell and Britten". This photograph of Smyth was taken in 1922.Photograph credit: unknown; restored by Adam Cuerden
