Wikipedia Goes Green
One of the largest sensations of recent internet has been the creation of Wikipedia. People have come together to share knowledge in a friendly environment from anything to great historical events or the simplest aspects of everyday life. However, you can’t deny the amazing ability Wikipedia has to spread information.
It has now come to my knowledge that circulating in the Wikipedia world, a green influence is coming to light and the “Green Wiki” has emerged. Launched by the same Jimmy Wales of the original Wiki, Wales has become very interested in the climate issue and has taken a small step to spreading information about the issue. In order to get the new wiki growing, Wiki has begun seeding a bunch of content on their green site, and they’ll be doing their best to attract and retain a community of informed green folks.
Now this isn’t going to save the world, in fact it’s mostly a great spot for all us geeks of the environment to meet and spread the word, but it is encouraging to see another high powered tech company/person taking an interest in the climate and environment issues of our world. It will be interesting to see how this site grows in the future and how the information is used. Click here to see the site and here to learn more.
Keep it Green,
Paul
