Very simple, and very fun.
The idea is to take one page on Wikipedia (english) and try to get to another specific page on Wikipedia with 5 or less links. The page you start on and the one you end up are not counted.

Here's an example, from Television to Data Frame:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television (START)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDTV
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_networks
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_Area_Network
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_frame (FINISH)

The person who solves it can set the next one! Note, you don't have to take 5 steps, you can take less. Important note: please be sure to check before setting one to make sure it's possible.

Next up, a nice holiday, from Rome to the Bahamas

Well done! Now you can (are supposed to) set a new task. If you can't find one (though you can always find one by just clicking a few links on Wiki, it just depends on how difficult it is), ask me to set one.

Ok, so this won't die before it ever lived:
Mathematics to Shamanism

That one was not as easy as I'd first thought it. Let me think on a new one.

Ok.

Of course not. That's the idea. If you solve it, you set the next one. :)

Be right back with a new one.

I think i've got it -

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jupiter

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voyager_program
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyroscope

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_guidance_system

The link at the bottom is exactly the same page as the inertial navigation system one, and they are exactly the same thing, so does it count?
