Biographical Database: Who2

I have seen many almanac reference-type biography resources on the Internet. I have never seen one which bothered to assemble a fact list of actors and famous people who have been attacked by lions. This is your introduction to biographical database Who2 ( http://www.who2.com ).

Who2 is browsable alphabetically (from A-Rod to Daphne Zuniga) and by city, state, and country, and is searchable. A search for Fred found 40 results (Fred Flintstone and Michigan J. Frog are both in here.) Listings include a brief biography, sometimes extra credit (an extra fact), famous people in the same field/era, vital stats (birth, death, etc.) and "four good links" pulled from various parts of the Web.

In addition to these browsable and searchable options, the site also has Who Loops, collections of famous people. Examples include the aforementioned attacked-by-lions example, but also people who have disappeared, actors who have done cartoon animation voice work, celebrity beekeepers, etc. A fun resource.
