Today's guest is Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales.


Wikipedia is now the world's largest encyclopedia. In 2006, Time Magazine named Wales as one of the world's most influential people.

Wales serves on the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation. In 2004, he co-founded Wikia, a privately-owned, free Web-hosting service.


Our co-host for today's show is JD Lasica, co-founder of Ourmedia.org, founder of Socialmedia.biz, and author of the book "Darknet: Hollywood's War Against the Digital Generation."
