Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything by Don Tapscott and Anthony D. Williams explores how some companies in the early 21st century used mass collaboration and open-source technology such as wikis to be successful.
Europe at War 1939-1945 No Simple Victory by Norman Davies mentions Wikipedia in Chapter 6 (Portrayals), page 460/461 with the words: [A]nd there is Wikipedia, the self-regulating Internet encyclopedia, to which anyone can contribute. Professional historians tend to distrust such websites. The Web they say, is dangerous. It is full of dubious statements and manifest errors. So, too, one might add, is every other source of historical information.

Many of the most famous works of antiquity come to us as accounts of words spoken by someone else."

- Leonard Sweet, Jesus Drives Me Crazy!. ISBN 0310232244, quote (pp. 72-73):
“ | Closed systems and other destructive orthodoxies of modernity are exhibiting the "supernova effect" — a supernova being a dying star that gets bigger and brighter in the very process of dying. Closed systems are supernovas. The flair that you see is their flare for dying.
Nine-Eleven was a fear response of a closed system to a future that looks more and more like an open-source movement. The world's first "open-source" consumer product is a soft drink called "OpenCola," which gives its recipe away on their website (www.opencola.org). Current other "open-source" projects include "OpenLaw", Open-Audio," and an encyclopedia called Wikipedia. |
