When you aren't looking for a specific article, navigating through Wikipedia can become a serious time-waster and form of entertainment. Here are a few small suggestions if you've yet to try out the site as a form of entertainment.
Portals serve as introductory pages into larger topics. They make a good first step when you are learning about a subject for recreation. The directory of portals is the complete list of all the portals on Wikipedia.
Current Events is a bare-bones source for news. It links to WikiNews, which seeks to meld mainstream news sources into unbiased reports of current events.
If you'd really like to squeeze Wikipedia for all it has to offer, make sure probe every nook and cranny of the site. Pressing the "Random Article" button on the top left part of the site (or alt+shift+x when you're on a Wiki page) always produces strange and interesting results. This command will direct you to any article among the 3 million existing English articles.
