Daniel Pink's WIRED article about Wikipedia, "the self-organizing, self-repairing, hyperaddictive library of the future," has hit the shelves. Titled "The Book Stops Here", the six-page piece opens with a picture of Jimbo gazing levelly over a large stack of Britannica volumes and -- are those the 2001 Florida Statues? It follows up with a set of beautiful sketches of six active wikipedians (Angela, Bryan Derksen, Carptrash, Kingturtle, Ram-Man, and Raul654), whose stories are woven into the article. Pink deals quite well with the nuances and motivations of the en: community, and the Wikipedia healing factor. However he all but ignores other languages (the article's one real flaw), and makes no mention of Wikimedia, New York, or other gatherings. He also demonstrates a Pelligrinesque affection for the term "God-King" (the subject is a quote from the article).
