Coses interessants de la Wikipedia

Aquest és un gran punt a favor de la Wikipedia.
What if humans, like ants or bees, are finally communicating in networks that produce a new form of hive mind? At 1:30 p.m. today, Nov. 5, a shooter struck the ranks of Fort Hood, Texas. By this evening, six hours later, Wikipedia had published a detailed analysis of the mass murder from a historical perspective tied to 22 published references. An army of volunteers had rushed to the online encyclopedia to post, for free, an evolving, informed, objective record of the events.
Evidentment, també hi ha moltes coses que no m’agraden d’aquesta enciclopèdia. Però francament, el que es comenta en aquest passatge que he citat és impressionant.
