Wikimedia founder Jimmy Wales discusses Wikia, his for-profit web-hosting service for wikis.


Wikipedia founder Jimbo Wales in conversation with Chris Shipley.

Best known for his major role in the founding of Wikipedia, Wales has changed the way we access information. Wales opened collaborative authorship software, called wiki, to the world's Internet users to create a web site with boundless encyclopedic information called Wikipedia. Recently, Wales rushed headlong into a battle against Google to fight for our attention with his launch of Search Wikia, emphasizing transparency and promising less spam. Wales talk about what's next on his agenda, his opinions on the politics of the Internet and his thoughts on the accuracy of Wikipedia posts. - The Commonwealth Club of California
