Wikipedia Is the Last Best Place on the Internet
Summary · 4 min · · In this article for Wired, cultural correspondent Richard Clarke tracks the origins, the day-to-day functioning and the likely future of Wikipedia. He discusses how its founders first regarded it as an adjunct to another site; how “Wikignomes” keep the site up and running; how Alexa and Siri depend on Wikipedia for answers and will depend on it even more in the future; and why everyone who uses Wikipedia still remains slightly reluctant to cite it as a source. Clarke’s lively writing and lucid insights will captivate anyone who uses Wikipedia – that is, pretty much everyone. · Shared by 707, including Matthias Lampe, getAbstract, Frederic Filloux, Craig Mod, Howard Getson, Francesco Corea, David Smooke, 🇺🇦Evan Kirstel #B2B #TechFluencer, Mark Little, Dominik Grolimund, Tiffany Shlain, Jane, Backchannel, @ShannaPeeples@mastodon.nl, Josep M.
