[edit] Wikipedia news
On August 2, 2006, I was quoted in a Detroit Free Press story about Wikipedia:
- "This is the way people are looking for information," Kestenbaum said. "They're looking to Wikipedia for it, so Wikipedia better be ready for it."
- He compares Wikipedia to "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy," the often-flippant, always-friendly electronic encyclopedia from the Douglas Adams novel of the same name. That too was compiled by correspondents from all over the universe.
