Jimmy Wales: Founder of Wikipedia.Wales started Wikipedia.org in 2001. Since then Wikipedia has become the font of knowledge for all term papers K-12 and 80 percent of term papers from college to post-doctoral programs. Close to 75 percent of information on Wikipedia is correct. Jimmy Wales speechifies on the revolution of semiknowledge he started and he also blows goats [citation needed].
Bottom Line: Wikipedia gets guff for being anonymous but nows your chance to meet the man behind it all.
