TruemorsFollowing Cory Doctorow's talk about 2 weeks ago on, "The State of the Copy Fight", Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia gave a lecture during Evan Korth’s Computer’s and Society course at NYU on "Free culture, transparency, and search.” his for-profit company Wikia and its three areas of operation: Library, Open Serving, and Search.
Given
the audiences familiarity with Wikipedia, Wales skipped most of his
prepared speech on that and after he gave a brief background on open
source software, how it works, and the fact that you can be
commercially successful doing and using it, he spent most of his time
talking about Wikia.
