Wikipedia is a free, multilingual, open content encyclopedia project operated by the United States-based non-profit Wikimedia Foundation. Its name is a portmanteau of the words wiki (a technology for creating collaborative websites) and encyclopedia. Launched in 2001 by Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger, it is currently the largest, fastest-growing, and most popular general reference work on the Internet. Wikipedia is a project that attempts to summarize all human knowledge. As of April 2008, Wikipedia attracts 683 million visitors annually reading over 10 million articles in 253 languages, comprising a combined total of over 1.74 billion words for all Wikipedias. The English Wikipedia edition passed the 2,000,000-article mark on September 9, 2007, and as of July 15, 2008 it had 2,457,002 articles consisting of over 1,048,000,000 words. Wikipedia's articles have been written collaboratively by volunteers around the world, and nearly all of its articles can be edited by anyone with access to the Internet. Having steadily risen in popularity since its inception, it currently ranks among the top ten most-visited web sites worldwide.

MusicBrainz is a user-maintained community music metadatabase. Music metadata is information such as the artist name, the release title, and the list of tracks that appear on a release. MusicBrainz collects this information about recordings and makes it available to the public. The web site is the interface which allows the creation and maintenance of the data. All of the data in MusicBrainz is user contributed and user maintained. This means that if you spot a mistake in the database, you should take the initiative to create yourself a MusicBrainz account (for free, of course!) and edit the data. MusicBrainz will never share your personal information with anyone and we will not spam you with anything. We believe strongly in the privacy of our users and since they are our lifeblood we would be stupid to disrespect our contributors. Please contribute your knowledge about music and MusicBrainz will share your knowledge with others, and in time MusicBrainz can become the most powerful and comprehensive music service in existence. In return for your hard work, MusicBrainz makes the data that users have contributed to available for download to the public.

FREE BEER is a beer which is free in the sense of freedom, not in the sense of free beer. The project, originally conceived by Copenhagen-based artist collective Superflex and students at the Copenhagen IT University, applies modern free software / open source methods to a traditional real-world product - namely the alcoholic beverage loved and enjoyed globally, and commonly known as beer. FREE BEER is based on classic ale brewing traditions, but with addded Guarana for a natural energy boost. The recipe and branding elements of FREE BEER is published under a Creative Commons (Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5) license, which means that anyone can use the recipe to brew their own FREE BEER or create a derivative of the recipe. Anyone is free to earn money from FREE BEER, but they must publish the recipe under the same license and credit our work. All design and branding elements are available to beer brewers, and can be modified to suit, provided changes are published under the same license ("Attribution & Share Alike")

The California Open Source Textbook Project (COSTP) is a collaborative, public/private undertaking. COSTP has been created to address the high cost, content range, and consistent shortages of K-12 textbooks in California. COSTP will employ open sourced content and innovative licensing tools to significantly reduce California's K-12 textbook costs. The cost of K-12 textbooks has risen at three times the rate of inflation, since 1992. Whatever the reasons for increasing costs, today's high K-12 textbook prices are not inevitable. Printed textbooks-on-demand can easily be produced and sold for 33-50+% less than currently charged by textbook publishing companies. COSTP's goal is to make the latter pricing scenario a reality, while providing multiple additional advantages for California's K-12 schools, teachers, students, and taxpayers. California currently spends more than $400M annually -- and rising -- for K-12 textbooks. With K-12 enrollments projected to rise substantially in coming years, revenue demands for K-12 textbooks and other curriculum materials in California will increase proportionately. COSTP's three primary benefits (among many) are 1) the elimination of the current $400M+ expenditure for California's K-12 textbooks; 2) a significant increase in the range and quality of content afforded to California's K-12 textbooks; 3) a permanent end to California's K-12 perennial textbook shortages; and 4) creation of fully portable content holdings database that scales with new digital and classroom technologies as they are introduced. It's important to note that COSTP's mandate does not replace printed textbooks - it simply makes them less expensive to produce; and, in doing so creates many additional benefits, economies, and efficiencies that more optimally leverage California's participation in the K-12 textbook publishing domain. Thus, COSTP will provide a new model for textbook creation in the State of California by 1) leveraging free, already-existing, and widely available K-12 educational content in the public domain; 2) better leveraging the substantial curriculum-based intellectual capital of California's best K-12 teachers; and 3) using innovative copyright tools to secure new and dormant K-12 textbook content that would not otherwise be made available. In phase one, COSTP is projected to augment current K-12 textbook supply chain, be self-supporting within 24 months of starting up, and save the State of California upwards of $200M+ per year for K-12 textbook allocation within five years. In phase two of the COSTP plan (following year five), California will be able to offer (by license, at nominal cost) K-12 textbook and curriculum materials to other educational organizations and international agencies. This will create substantial cost savings for those entities, and will result in nearly the complete elimination of funds heretofore budgeted for California's K-12 textbook purchases - currently $400M+ per year. Additionally, California will realize a surplus (profit) from it's K-12 content licensing activities as this second stage of COSTP is deployed. In addition to K-12 textbook production activities, COSTP has undertaken a consulting role among several prominent open source textbook projects by 1) helping those projects understand the vagaries and realities of commercial K-12 textbook publishing; 2) creating effective, alternative open source strategies for competing with commercial publishers, to help achieve sustainability; 3) helping open source textbook organizations fully understand the social returns on investment realized by their respective projects; and, 4) creating open source publishing evaluation and project management templates that aid in the execution of strategy and help maintain future sustainability.

To present up-to-date, relevant, newsworthy and entertaining content without bias Wikinews promotes the idea of participatory journalism because of the belief that citizens know what is news like no others. You are invited to join in this effort, and share news that is of interest to you. The Wikinews project is a free content news source of the Wikimedia Foundation that seeks to provide content where everyone is invited to contribute reports about events large and small, either from direct experience, or summarized from elsewhere. Wikinews is founded on the idea to build a unique news environment to enrich the media landscape. Wikinews' use extends beyond original reports, by providing free, neutral, integrated summaries of the news from elsewhere. It will already be useful even if the subject range covered will be full of gaps--because in these subject areas, we will already benefit from the collaborative wiki model. It will grow to become more useful every day. While Wikinews aims to one day be a useful resource of its own, it will also provide an alternative to proprietary news agencies like the Associated Press or Reuters; that is, it will allow independent media outfits to get a high quality feed of news free of charge to complement their own reporting. Thanks to copyleft, anyone can create their own free news source--even a non-neutral one--on the basis of this work. There are many challenges. Wikinews adopted the key principles that made Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia websites what they are today: neutral, free content and open decision-making processes.

Wiktionary (a portmanteau of wiki and dictionary) is a multilingual, Web-based project to create a free content dictionary, available in over 151 languages. Unlike standard dictionaries, it is written collaboratively by volunteers using wiki software, allowing articles to be changed by almost anyone with access to the Web site. Like its sister project Wikipedia, Wiktionary is run by the Wikimedia Foundation. Because Wiktionary is not limited by print space considerations, most of Wiktionary's language editions provide definitions and translations of words from many languages, and some editions offer additional information typically found in Thesauruses and lexicons. Additionally, the English Wiktionary includes Wikisaurus, a category that serves as a thesaurus, including lists of slang words, and the Simple English Wiktionary, compiled using the Basic English subset of the English language.

Wikibooks (previously called Wikimedia Free Textbook Project and Wikimedia-Textbooks) is a Wikimedia Foundation wiki for the creation of free content textbooks and annotated texts that anyone can edit. Wikibooks was launched on July 10, 2003, in response to a request made by Wikipedia contributor Karl Wick for a project to host and build free textbooks such as organic chemistry and physics. Two major sub-projects Wikijunior and Wikiversity were created within Wikibooks before Wikibooks' official policy was later changed so that future incubator type projects are started according to the Wikimedia Foundation's new project policy. In August 2006, Wikiversity became an independent Wikimedia Foundation project. Wikijunior has been proposed as a full Wikimedia sister project. Some discussion for its creation as a sister project reached the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees, but it was an incomplete proposal. The Internet domain name http://wikijunior.org/ was registered by the Wikimedia Foundation in anticipation of Wikijunior's becoming a sister project later.

Wikisource is an online library of free content publications collected and maintained by the community (see our inclusion policy). See the help pages for information on getting started and the community portal for ways you can help.

Wikispecies is a wiki-based online project supported by the Wikimedia Foundation that aims to create a comprehensive free content catalogue of all species. It is aimed at scientists, rather than at the general public. Jimmy Wales, chairman emeritus of the Wikimedia Foundation, has said that editors are not required to fax in their degrees, but that submissions will have to pass muster with a technical audience. Wikispecies is available under the GNU Free Documentation License. Started in August 2004, with biologists across the world invited to contribute, the project had grown a framework encompassing the Linnaean taxonomy with links to Wikipedia articles on individual species by April 2005.

Wikimedia Commons (or simply Commons) is a repository of free content images, sound and other multimedia files. It is a project of the Wikimedia Foundation, and the files uploaded to Commons repository can be used across all Wikimedia projects in all languages, including Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikisource and Wikinews, or downloaded for offsite use, as all of the content is either in the public domain or released under free licenses such as the GNU Free Documentation License. As of July 2008, the repository contained over 3 million media files.

Wikiquote is one of a family of wiki-based projects run by the Wikimedia Foundation, running on MediaWiki software. Based on an idea by Daniel Alston and implemented by Brion Vibber, the goal of the project is to produce collaboratively a vast reference of quotations from prominent people, books, films and proverbs, and to give details about them. Though there are many online collections of quotations, Wikiquote is distinguished by being among the few that provide an opportunity for visitors to contribute. Wikiquote pages are cross-linked to articles about the notable personalities on Wikipedia. Initially, the project was created solely in English. However, in July 2004, additional languages were added.

Wikiversity is a Wikimedia Foundation project devoted to learning resources and learning projects for all levels, types, and styles of education from pre-school to university, including professional training and informal learning.

It is the goal of the OScar Project to develop a car according to Open Source principles. In our opinion, a car is not a vehicle full of high-tech gadgets. Instead, we are looking for a simple and functional concept to spread mobility. Form follows function. Apart from that, OScar is not just a car. It is about new ways of mobility and the spreading of the Open Source idea in the real (physical) world. On this website, you will find a great community of developers and drivers who want to invent mobility anew and together. The project started in 1999. In December 2005, it reached release 0.2. Starting in 2006, everyone is welcome to participate.

OpenCola is a brand of cola unique in that the instructions for making it are freely available and modifiable. Anybody can make the drink, and anyone can modify and improve on the recipe as long as they, too, license their recipe under the GNU General Public License. Although originally intended as a promotional tool to explain free and open source software, the drink took on a life of its own and 150,000 cans were sold. The Toronto-based company Opencola founded by Grad Conn, Cory Doctorow and John Henson became better known for the drink than the software it was supposed to promote. Laird Brown, the company's senior strategist, attributes its success to a widespread mistrust of big corporations and the "proprietary nature of almost everything."

The Open Translation Engine (OTE) is an open source project developing language translation and dictionary tools for the internet community.

LyricWiki is a free site which is a single source where anyone can go to get reliable lyrics for any song from any artist without being hammered by invasive ads. Music is a large part of many people's lives, and we feel there should be a place where people can go to just look up the lyrics to songs. No hassles. LyricWiki is the most comprehensive site ever created for lyrics. Through automated scripts, public domain lyrics were found across the internet and reliable results were mined and formatted to provide the base of more than 430,000 songs that started the site off. Like most "wiki" sites, the content of LyricWiki depends on its community of people throughout the world who contribute the lyrics to the site and vigilantly protect the site from vandalism and much lesser offenses like simple typos. Anyone can join, and most everyone has some song lyrics that they love which they can help bring to the world. We welcome you with open arms! For more information, refer to Contributing to LyricWiki.

The Citizendium, a "citizens' compendium of everything," is an open wiki project aimed at creating an enormous, free, and reliable encyclopedia.

OpenSPARC.net is the genesis of a vision by engineers, technologists, evangelists, and executives at Sun Microsystems, Inc. to create a larger community where open conversations and collaborative development projects spawn dramatic innovations around chip design. Individual programmers as well as representatives from Universities, industry associations, supporting software companies, foundries, entrepreneurs, large corporations and visionaries have already begun to participate in this expanded community. SPARC stands for Scalable Processor ARchitecture. The technology is based on pioneering research around RISC at the University of California, Berkeley. It has been the basis of Sun's premiere line of servers since its introduction the Sun 4/260 and 4/280, in mid-1987 and then as the Campus-1 "pizza box" in 1989. That year, Sun transferred the ownership of the SPARC specifications to SPARC International, who continues to license the technology and manage compliance testing for the trademark today. SPARC has had a long history of openness. Take a look at Dawn of OpenSPARC.

OER Commons is the first comprehensive open learning network where teachers and professors (from pre-K to graduate school) can access their colleagues' course materials, share their own, and collaborate on affecting today's classrooms. It uses Web 2.0 features (tags, ratings, comments, reviews, and social networking) to create an online experience that engages educators in sharing their best teaching and learning practices. The emergence of OER signals the growing trend toward openness for teaching and learning materials. The mission of OER Commons is to expand educational opportunities by increasing access to high-quality Open Educational Resources (OER), and facilitating the creation, use, and re-use of OER, for instructors, students, and self-learners. OER Commons reaches its mission through the following objectives: Use: To provide a single point of access through which educators, students, and all learners can search, browse, evaluate, download, and discuss open educational resources (OER) that are freely available online. Re-Use: To expand opportunities for those who use open educational resources to develop and submit high-quality content for others to use and localize. Community: To broaden opportunities for educators, students, and self-learners to exchange information about, create standards for, and otherwise define, improve and evaluate the quality of open educational resources available on the Internet.

The Open Graphics Project (OGP) is developing graphics cards with fully published specs and open source drivers.

The Encyclopedia of Life (EOL) is an ambitious, even audacious project to organize and make available via the Internet virtually all information about life present on Earth. At its heart lies a series of Web sites--one for each of the approximately 1.8 million known species--that provide the entry points to this vast array of knowledge. The entry-point for each site is a species page suitable for the general public, but with several linked pages aimed at more specialized users. The sites sparkle with text and images that are enticing to everyone, as well as providing deep links to specific data. The EOL dynamically synthesizes biodiversity knowledge about all known species, including their taxonomy, geographic distribution, collections, genetics, evolutionary history, morphology, behavior, ecological relationships, and importance for human well being, and distribute this information through the Internet. It serves as a primary resource for a wide audience that includes scientists, natural resource managers, conservationists, teachers, and students around the world. We believe that the EOL's encompassing scope and innovation will have a major global impact in facilitating biodiversity research, conservation, and education. EOL is an unprecedented global effort and we want you to be a part of it. Natural history museums, botanical gardens, other research institutions, and dedicated individuals are working to create the most complete biodiversity database on the Web, but without your help it cannot be done. Here are some ways in which you can become involved: Become a curator for a species page. Volunteer to be the curator (authenticator) for one or more of the minimal species pages. To do so, click here and send us your name, institutional affiliation, and the name(s) of the page(s) you would like to curate. Provide content. Later in 2008 we will set up a mechanism for anyone to contribute species-related content (photos, drawings, text, video, etc.). The curator(s) of the species will consider the submissions for incorporation into the authenticated species page. Become a donor to the EOL. While initial funding for the EOL has been secured, additional resources are needed.

This is a Open Source community project with members from Germany, Holland, Austria and Switzerland. The goal was to build a flying Open Source QuadCopter at a reasonable price.

Many people are interested in what is called neurofeedback or EEG biofeedback training, a generic mental training method which makes the trainee consciously aware of the general activity in the brain. This method shows great potential for improving many mental capabilities and exploring consciousness. Other people want to do experiments with brain-computer interfaces or just want to have a look at their brain at work. Unfortunately, commercial EEG devices are generally too expensive to become a hobbyist tool or toy. The OpenEEG project is about making plans and software for do-it-yourself EEG devices available for free (as in GPL). It is aimed toward amateurs who would like to experiment with EEG. However, if you are a pro in any of the fields of electronics, neurofeedback, software development etc., you are of course welcome to join the mailing-list and share your wisdom.

Bloomingpedia is a City Wiki about the city of Bloomington, Indiana and the surrounding area. It allows anyone visiting the site to make changes and additions to the articles. While allowing anyone to change articles might seem like a bad idea, the majority of people using the wiki care about the quality of its content. For a good example of wiki technology, check out Wikipedia, which is an extensive online encyclopedia maintained by people around the world. However, where Wikipedia is about global concepts, Bloomingpedia covers only information about Bloomington. Simular to Open Source Software (like Linux), Bloomingpedia is created by the people and for the people. It is an example of how great something can be when we all work together on it. Bloomingpedia is not limited to any specific set of information such as historical, news, profiles, data sheets or surveys. It is all these things. It is an all encompasing plethora of information for a city in the 21st century. Bloomingpedia started out of the desire for more information about Bloomington and its rich history and culture. After not being able to find better information about Bloomington on the Internet, Mark Krenz decided to create a wiki in order to allow everyone to collaborate on an information resource for Bloomington. Within the first few days of its existance, people already started coming to the site and editing articles. It was then decided that the Bloomingpedia Council would be formed to help guide the direction of the site and to ensure that it would be a useful resource and will last for years, if not decades to come. Bloomingpedia was started in July, 2005 by Mark Krenz. It is now managed by the Bloomingpedia Council.

wikiDOMO's goal is to build the first truly comprehensive local recommendation and search engine. In the coming months, wikiDOMO will allow you to easily find, contribute, and share information about any local organization, its people, and its products and services. For free.

And, this goes for just about anything you buy or use.

The Open Directory Project is the largest, most comprehensive human-edited directory of the Web. It is constructed and maintained by a vast, global community of volunteer editors. The web continues to grow at staggering rates. Automated search engines are increasingly unable to turn up useful results to search queries. The small paid editorial staffs at commercial directory sites can't keep up with submissions, and the quality and comprehensiveness of their directories has suffered. Link rot is setting in and they can't keep pace with the growth of the Internet. Instead of fighting the explosive growth of the Internet, the Open Directory provides the means for the Internet to organize itself. As the Internet grows, so do the number of net-citizens. These citizens can each organize a small portion of the web and present it back to the rest of the population, culling out the bad and useless and keeping only the best content. The Open Directory follows in the footsteps of some of the most important editor/contributor projects of the 20th century. Just as the Oxford English Dictionary became the definitive word on words through the efforts of volunteers, the Open Directory follows in its footsteps to become the definitive catalog of the Web. The Open Directory was founded in the spirit of the Open Source movement, and is the only major directory that is 100% free. There is not, nor will there ever be, a cost to submit a site to the directory, and/or to use the directory's data. The Open Directory data is made available for free to anyone who agrees to comply with our free use license. The Open Directory is the most widely distributed data base of Web content classified by humans. Its editorial standards body of net-citizens provide the collective brain behind resource discovery on the Web. The Open Directory powers the core directory services for the Web's largest and most popular search engines and portals, including Netscape Search, AOL Search, Google, Lycos, HotBot, DirectHit, and hundreds of others.

Uncyclopedia, "the content-free encyclopedia that anyone can edit", was founded in 2005 as an English-language wiki featuring satirically themed articles. It is formatted as a parody of Wikipedia and aims ultimately to parody all encyclopedic subjects. Originally an English-language wiki, the project currently spans over 50 languages with almost 100,000 pages of content. The site has gained negative attention due to its articles on towns and places and its similarity with Wikipedia, which led to a warning being issued by the Malaysian Internal Security Ministry.

With MyWikiBiz, you create a beautiful, reader-friendly page that will get picked up by Google, Yahoo!, and MSN Search engines. Why publish your information on MyWikiBiz? There are many reasons.

If you're an artist, sell your paintings. If you're an author, sell your books. If you're an attorney, proffer your services. (Those are just a few "a" occupations -- imagine what's possible with "b" through "z"!) * Showcase maps, videos, and games on your pages. You can't do that on Wikipedia! Are you more interested in the community-edited dynamic of an encyclopedia like Wikipedia? No problem. Any topic that is not about a legal entity can be traditionally edited by multiple users in the Main pages of MyWikiBiz. What are you waiting for? You can register an account and get started now! Or, you can ask someone for help in creating your pages for a modest fee.

A Million Penguins was a collaborative effort to write a novel. The web site through which the novel was written used a wiki for the authors to add their submissions. Due to the overwhelming number of edits, over 100 every hour, Penguin had to impose "reading windows" whereby they freeze the novel so that the more serious editors can read over what has been changed and thus get their bearings on where the story is going. On March 7, 2007, the Penguin Books UK blog announced that the project had come to an end.

What is this about?: This wiki is a catalogue of the tricks of the trade for writing fiction. We dip into the cauldron of story, whistle up a hearty spoonful, and splosh it in front of you to devour to your heart's content. Tropes are devices and conventions that a writer can reasonably rely on as being present in the audience members' minds and expectations. On the whole, tropes are not clich?s. The word clich?d means "stereotyped and trite." In other words, dull and uninteresting. We are not looking for dull and uninteresting entries. We are here to recognize tropes and play with them, not to make fun of them. The wiki is called "TV Tropes" because that is where we started. Over the course of a few years, our scope has crept out to include other media. Tropes transcend television. They exist in life, as we will be quick to tell you. Art in any form does its best to reflect life, so tropes show up everywhere. We want 'em all. Right, so what is a "wiki"?: A wiki is a web site where any user can create new pages, edit existing pages, link between pages, and search the site. You can even edit this page, if you wish. This may seem strange, but it can be an extremely powerful and flexible way to take notes, collaborate and work on the web. All we request is that you act responsibly with all this power and follow the few rules and guidelines we have. This is not Wikipedia. We're a buttload more informal. There Is No Such Thing As Notability and no citations are needed. If your entry cannot gather any evidence by the Wiki Magic, it will just wither and die. Until then, though, it will be available through the Main Tropes Index. We encourage breezy language and original thought (and won't object to the occasional snarky comment, either). Some of us are a bit fussy about grammar, but that's just because we like words. Go on, have fun... This wiki can be a great resource for writers to research ideas. Check out Writer's Toolbox on how to start.

StrategyWiki was founded in December 2005 with the idea that the strategy guides that exist on the internet could be improved. Our vision is to bring free, collaborative video game strategy guides to the masses. Traditionally, video game walkthroughs have been created as plain text files with no formatting or embellishments other than visual tricks such as ASCII art. In recent years this format has been increasingly criticized for not having evolved along with advances in web design and web content accessibility. With the powerful MediaWiki processing engine at its core, StrategyWiki guides can utilize features such as rich text, tables and inline images, all things that are either impossible or extremely difficult to replicate in a plain text file and can contribute greatly to the impact of a walkthrough.

Memory Alpha is a wiki that is an encyclopedic reference for topics related to the Star Trek fictional universe. Conceived by Harry Doddema and Dan Carlson in September 2003 and officially launched on December 5 of that year, it uses the wiki model and is hosted by Wikia, Inc. on the MediaWiki software. As of March 2008, Memory Alpha contains over 27,500 articles in its English edition alone, making it one of the largest wiki projects. The site is also available in Bulgarian, Chinese, Czech, Dutch, Esperanto, French, German, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Serbian, Spanish and Swedish. There is also a "Mirror Universe" Memory Alpha.

Whole Wheat Radio is a homegrown grassroots online radio station originating from Talkeetna, Alaska. We are an off-shoot of the Wikipedia collaborative wiki model and use the same software they do although modified to our needs. Most things you learn here can be used on Wikipedia and vice-versa. If you are an experienced Wikipedian we encourage you to share your skills in support of the many truly independent musicians represented here. Please click one of the "Listen" links on the left to hear what we are all about. The other links on the left are how you get around the site. Don't be afraid to click them - they'll take you to wondrous new lands. Yes, it's a huge site but you don't have to learn it all at once - or any of it if you simply want to listen. The choice is yours. We are in the midst of our seventh year of live webcasting 24/7/365 and our forth year of presenting live house concerts to both the local and the worldwide internet community. We are a non-profit, non-hype driven labor of love to which listeners have donated $40,286.54. Working musicians who've performed here at house concerts have brought in just over $20,000 for door receipts, CD sales and online tips ... 100% of which has gone right back to them. We feature the music of 2,758 truly talented independent artists who appreciate the opportunity to have their 39,761 songs be heard on a funky, non-traditional webcast. We've had over 14,486,933 listens to the more than 700,256 tunes we've played. Listeners have purchased 2,945 CDs from CD Baby via WWR, generating $2,958 in referral payments for WWR. We tend to appeal to grownups who don't take life too seriously - the average age of people hanging out here is 49 years old. Oh, and the mysterious we that keeps cropping up is - you. You are the Whole Wheat Radio collaboration that makes everything fun, creative and independent. The WWR website/wiki that you're looking at right now forms the basis of the WWR community. This site is being built by people just like you - 789 of 'em who've been active on the site over the last 4 months to be exact. It is constantly changing as new pages are added, and other pages are revised and edited. It is a huge dynamic knowledge base of both independent artists and music that grownups like - and there's always something more to contribute. Everyone is encouraged to contribute content. A good way to get started is to create your own User page and contribute your photo to the Listener gallery. Or, maybe you'd like to describe how you found WWR or maybe you want to request some songs to play shortly. While you're enjoying the music you can help organize the music library by helping to categorize whatever song is currently playing. Or, maybe you'd like to say "Hello" to everyone listening by calling in your own on-the-air phonegram that will air shortly after you hang up. There's always something fun to do while you're listening. But ultimately, despite its cutting edge website and collaborators, the heart of Whole Wheat Radio is the independent music we play. If all the bells and whistles of this site are intimidating or just too much, don't hesitate to become one of our many silent listeners. We all relate. Music that moves you deep down in your soul doesn't need a computer keyboard to work its magic. Many members of the community listen frequently but seldom visit the website - and that's perfectly okay. If you're a website fanatic, feel free to explore the site using the links on this page. When you're ready to start contributing, just jump right in. It may seem complicated, but editing a page is really pretty simple. Don't be afraid of messing something up. Changes made to a page can always be "rolled back." If you have any questions, post them at Ask Mr. Monkey.

Welcome to Scholarpedia, the peer-reviewed open-access encyclopedia written by scholars from all around the world. Scholarpedia feels and looks like Wikipedia - the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit. Indeed, both are powered by the same program - MediaWiki. Both allow visitors to review and modify articles simply by clicking on the edit this article link. However, Scholarpedia differs from Wikipedia in some very important ways: * Each article is written by an expert (invited or elected by the public). * Each article is anonymously peer reviewed to ensure accurate and reliable information. * Each article has a curator - typically its author -- who is responsible for its content. * Any modification of the article needs to be approved by the curator before it appears in the final, approved version. Herein also lies the greatest difference between Scholarpedia and traditional print media: while the initial authorship and review processes are similar to a print journal so that Scholarpedia articles could be cited, they are not frozen and outdated, but dynamic, subject to an ongoing process of improvement moderated by their curators. This allows Scholarpedia to be up-to-date, yet maintain the highest quality of content.

Susning.nu was/is a Swedish language wiki, started in October 2001 by Lars Aronsson (also the founder of Project Runeberg), and it ran for three years as an open wiki. In April 2004, Susning had over 60,000 articles on various topics, making it the largest Swedish wikis at the time. Aronsson's stated original aim for Susning was "to make it into whatever the users want it to be." As such, Susning was/is an encyclopedia, a dictionary, and a discussion forum about any concept of interest to its users. It was in direct competition with the Swedish Wikipedia and could perhaps be compared in scope to Everything2.

Sensei's Library (short: SL) is meant to be a place where Go players can meet to find information, contribute information and discuss any items related to Go. Sensei's Library is mainly in the English language, but articles in other languages are also welcome. There are several sister wikis, such as EncyGoPedie in French and Go Wiki in Spanish. If you do add a page in another language than English to Sensei's Library, please add the Language Template at the top with a short explanation in English indicating what the page is about. This also helps other editors in determining whether a page is appropriate and not spam. Just like in a bricks-and-mortar library, you can look for information on various subjects in the Reference Section and find pages in the master index. You can quickly get help understanding Wiki pages and learn how to use Wiki. SL is a Wiki Wiki Web site using GoWiki and as such can be edited by everyone! You are encouraged to contribute to existing articles and add new ones (don't try this with a pen in your local library). Your wisdom will then be available to all subsequent users. You can expand entries and correct mistakes if you see them, or add comments, etc. Have a look at Wiki Etiquette before you start modifying pages. Since we are in cyberspace, there is no need to be quiet! Discussion on all subjects is welcome. Visit the Library Lobby, where discussions are always ongoing, or hang around the Coffee Machine. You can even ask Quick Questions. Please don't forget that most (all?) of our contributors are amateur players. That means that you should take their opinions with a grain of salt. For example, if you apply a tesuji found here in one of your games and it turns out it is bogus and you lose a group and thus the game, don't blame us. Instead come back here and add your newly acquired knowledge to that page :o) Quite unlike any library on the corner, we are not quite sure what SL will end up looking like or being used as. It is up to the users to define what they want and determine the future use of Sensei's Library. For the nostalgics, check out the original pages.

As a practical line in the sand, see our Page Layout and Writing Guide and Statement of Faith pages. WikiChristian also intends to be a reference point for factual information, original text, Bible versions, Bible dictionaries, song lyrics and personal testimonies of Christians. We intend to create a wiki community of Christians from around the globe that can voice their views, share their ideas and help others understand Christianity and its principles! Simply - WikiChristian wants to represent, document and link everything related to Christianity!

Congresspedia is a collaboratively written "citizens' encyclopedia on Congress," designed to shine more light on the workings of the U.S. Congress. Congresspedia is part of SourceWatch, a similarly collaborative, wiki-based website documenting the people, organizations and issues shaping the public agenda. Congresspedia is a wiki, meaning that anyone can edit any article by clicking on the edit this page link that appears in every article in Congresspedia. All submissions require a source, and to ensure fairness and accuracy, the site has an editor. The current editor of Congresspedia is Conor Kenny.

SourceWatch is a collaborative project of the Center for Media and Democracy to produce a directory of the people, organizations and issues shaping the public agenda. A primary purpose of SourceWatch is documenting the PR and propaganda activities of public relations firms and public relations professionals engaged in managing and manipulating public perception, opinion and policy. SourceWatch also includes profiles on think tanks, industry-funded organizations and industry-friendly experts that work to influence public opinion and public policy on behalf of corporations, governments and special interests. Over time, SourceWatch has broadened to include others involved in public debates including media outlets, journalists, government agencies, activists and nongovernmental organizations. Unlike some other wikis, SourceWatch has a policy of strict referencing, and is overseen by a paid editor. SourceWatch has 38,776 articles. This site is built by ordinary wise people, like you. You don't need any special credentials to participate -- we shun credentialism along with other propaganda techniques. It's the fact that it is open to everyone that makes these articles ever-improving, as we review and build on each other's work. Although no one is free of bias, we can cancel each other's out to a large degree, and deal with any systemic bias remaining by policy measures.

JurisPedia is an encyclopedic project of academic initiative devoted to worldwide law, legal and political sciences. You are invited to create an account and to contribute, by adding a new article or by modifying this one. JurisPedia is an academic project accessible on the Web and devoted to law systems throughout the world as well as with legal and political sciences. The project tends to offer information about all law systems of every state in the world. Since the internet allows access to such information all over the planet, we are no more dealing with a utopia. Based on a Wiki, JurisPedia combines the facility of contributions on that support with an academic control of those insertions a posteriori. This international project is the result of a free collaboration of different ressearch teams and law schools. The different websites are accessible in seven languages. Since two years of existence, the project covers more than 4000 articles and outlines of articles dealing with law systems of thirty states. More than 2000 users have subscribed and therefore we are talking about one of the most important law-sites of free access and in Arabic language in the world. The open dimension of this law-wiki, which every internet user can contribute, did not lead to a massif surge of uncontrolled and uncontrollable contents, not even a bit. Although the number of articles rises continually, it stays reasonable and the academic character of the project certainly leaded to a selection of participants of a higher level in legal science. A great part of those participants are therefore students doing a master or a PhD degree, but also doctors, Professors and professionals in law like lawyers, notaries and judges of more than thirty states. All those specialists found the base of this concrete project by contributing from time to time as they can. Using this dynamism, this collective intelligence, it is possible to create other projects than a kind of ?wikipedia of the law?. Most of the teams taking part work on law and informatics, so the project rapidly included a number of tools which facilitate research and give access to information on the internet. First of all tools of the internet 2.0 help to limit a research to the relevant parts of the internet concerning law. But our participation in the development of semantic tools used by us in the field of law shall ? based on the moving project JurisPedia ? lead to a tool of evident reliability. This evolution shall also found semantic relations between law systems in the world in order to facilitate research in comparative law. Another idea: This group of contributions/contributors maybe make quite a particular use of the internet in an academic world: Beyond the e-learning and the use of internet as a mean for the reproduction of classic lessons by teleportation (...), JurisPedia is also a link between the universities? classes and the outer world? In the same way the contributors can as well be directly contacted as readers need further information or precisions on a certain point of law in their own country, in a more exotic state or for some professional reason. For example, it is possible to get information about the constitutional law of the Senegal in Arabic language on JurisPedia. The JurisPedia content is under a creative commons licence that is quite customisable so that the content can be reused for other except for commercial purposes. This last point is linked to the authorization of the exact contributor. This is quite a fair choice in the information society where the digital divide is an important element concerning every international project on the internet: Only the most developed States have the possibility of using such collective creations in a commercial way,? and we take pride in counting contributors from Haiti or Sudan. JurisPedia is an international project that should follow some simple and federative guidelines. This is why we tried from the beginning on to eliminate any geological centralization (in order to inform about law as it is and not as it should be in a certain state) and, certainly, to follow the Universal Declaration of Human Rights accepted by the member states of the United Nations. The observation of law in the world is not necessarily connected to an approbation of the idea of globalization and ? as we like to emphasize evidence ? law is linked to its culture and can be more ore less similar to our personal law-system. This is why shared law becomes on one hand a program allowing anybody not to ignore a law system. On the other hand JurisPedia will gradually make it possible to appreciate or react on what is done elsewhere, not only in the West but also in the North, East and South.

LegalWikiPro is a Wiki-type encyclopedia for Lawyers. There are several "wiki" sites out there that cover legal issues, but they seem to be primarily for consumers. LegalWikiPro is of, by and for lawyers. LegalWikiPro will provide the detailed, jurisdiction-specific content that lawyers need. Because we want to provide real content for real lawyers, we need lawyers to contribute content. If you are a lawyer (civil, criminal, contract, agency, judge, professor [or law student]) we need your help. Create a free account, login and start contributing. It is not our goal for LegalWikiPro to be the be-all for your legal research. But it can provide you just the right mix of overview and detail that you need to get you started down the right path. Plus, it can be a great place to store your own research snippets and pattern paragraphs for briefs, while helping the rest of the legal community.

Both rendered images and the vector dataset are available for download under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 licence. Registered users can upload GPS track logs and edit the vector data using the given editing tools. OpenStreetMap was inspired by sites such as Wikipedia -- the map display features a prominent 'Edit' tab and a full revision history is maintained.

Wikileaks is a website that publishes anonymous submissions and leaks of sensitive governmental, corporate, or religious documents, while taking measures to preserve the anonymity and untraceability of its contributors. Within one year of its December 2006 launch, its database had grown to more than 1.2 million documents. Running on modified MediaWiki software, Wikileaks is hosted by PRQ, an Internet service provider in Sweden.

Let's start with our credo: We believe that travelers are the best source of travel information. That is why we have setup World66, an open content travel guide, where people from all over the planet can write about the places they love, the hotels they stayed in, the restaurants that have eaten. Every part of the travel guide can be edited directly, just click the [edit] button and go ahead. You can change the info you find, do a write up, add a complete city or just a bar or a restaurant. Does this work? We think it does. Thanks to this approach World66.com has become one of the most complete travel resources on the internet, with 149,869 articles on 79,285 destinations all over the world. Good info, more up to date than you find in travel books. Check for yourself. And should you find some wrong info, a hotel that has closed down, whatever, don't complain, but act. You can change it. It's up to you. And together we can make world66.com the best travel guide on the planet.

Cebuwiki covers all aspects of living and visiting Cebu, including shopping, restaurants, hotels, resorts, pension houses, tourist attractions, cities and streets.

Canadawiki is a "wiki", or hyperlinked collaborative authoring system, where people can share knowledge about Canada and Canadians. The Canadawiki project currently has 14,793 articles, starting with social studies material (primarily the CanLine Canadian Chronology and Canaday - Today in Canadian History), as well as Canadian stories and biographies (starting with Alberta and Saskatchewan biographies, to celebrate the centennials), and the CanQuotes Canadian Quotations collection, Canada's largest. Canadawiki is using some basic History of Canada Online, Canadian History News and Wikipedia articles to help seed the portal, but we are gradually replacing these and developing unique Canadawiki content, starting with timelines and biographies. Canadawiki is a controlled portal. If you want to create or edit content, we provide a User IDs and password on request. In this way, we can prevent submission vandalism, vanity publishing and graffiti. Teachers can also manage class efforts if they want their students to contribute and share deeper, local content. We also reserve the right to lock some Canadawiki pages to prevent over-editing and overcomplication, and to refuse content if the quality and utility are questionable. In terms of providing narrative articles, we currently rely on links to sites such as our History of Canada Online, Canada's First People and Civics Canada Online textbook portals, with permission from the copyright holders. Canadawiki is NOT an online encyclopedia. In general, we prefer lists and point form content to long narrative articles. We ask for submissions in raw and plain form that students can use for research and to assemble their own work. We don't want to spoon feed conclusions and points of view (NO-POV). As with any public wiki, we do not guarantee this information source to be accurate. In the case of biographies, say, John A. Macdonald, we believe students can go far beyond cribbing a narrative encyclopedic biography, and produce their own content by reworking their own timelines and images. As the great educator Piaget wrote, "Each time one prematurely teaches a child something he could have discovered for himself, that child is kept from inventing it and consequently from understanding it completely." We believe that is the case for any form of learning. So above all, Canadawiki is a way for Canadians to understand Canada.

As a follow-up to the successful project Orange's "Elephants Dream", the Blender Foundation initiated another open movie project. Again a small team (7) of the best 3D artists and developers in the Blender community have been invited to come together to work in Amsterdam from October 2007 until April 2008 on completing a short 3D animation movie. The team members will get a great studio facility and housing in Amsterdam, all travel costs reimbursed, and a fee sufficient to cover all expenses during the period. The creative concept of "Peach" was completely different as for "Orange". This time it is "funny and furry"! Peach also was the first Open Project hosted by the new Blender Institute in Amsterdam. This will make the project more independent, without much involvement of production partners, and also will ensure continuity. Peach Targets This Open movie project had as main targets: * Developing tools in Blender for editing and rendering hair, fur or grass * Improve character animation tools for cartoonish motion and deformation * Test Blender with giant outdoor environments, with large grassy fields and many trees with leaves * Further validate Blender as a professional animation creation suite And secondary: * Create a great and good looking animation short, licensed freely as open content * Provide content for other artists to learn from or to re-use, including documentation and tutorials

Welcome to the (Canada) Public Policy Wiki, a joint venture between the Globe and Mail and the Dominion Institute. So much of what happens in Canada when it comes to developing public policy occurs behind closed doors, inside committee rooms and legislative offices. Even the discussion about many of the issues that affect us as a country, such as the federal budget, foreign policy, our relationship with the U.S. and so on, tends to take place primarily in academic or official circles. Opportunities for public comment are rare, and often overly restrictive. We'd like to try and open that process up a little, and this is our attempt to do that. One of the benefits to the Internet is that it lowers the barriers that can prevent people from discussing these kinds of important topics, and allow them to provide their thoughts about the direction the government should take. Some would argue that it lowers the barriers a little too far, but that's a subject for another day, and another wiki :-) Above all, this is an experiment, and one that we hope will provide a useful forum for concerned citizens of all kinds to contribute their thoughts and ideas on some of the issues mentioned above. We're starting with one issue (The Federal Budget), but we hope to make this a home for similar discussions on a range of other important topics. How -- or even whether -- we do that will depend on your response to this initial "beta test." If this experiment succeeds -- as we sincerely hope it will -- we'd like to expand it to become an ongoing project to tap what we like to call the "Two Million Minds" of our readers and other concerned citizens, a kind of open, crowd-powered forum that we could use to collect the thoughts and opinions of the Canadian public on the important issues that confront our country and us as a society. I'd like to thank all of those who contributed the research and analysis we are starting you off with -- Don Drummond, Jim Stanford, Mark Stabile and Tony Frost (whose contributions can be found via the links on the Resources page) -- and I'd like to thank all of our future contributors as well. We're going to have some interesting surprises and special contributors show up over the next few weeks, so please visit often.

SCIFIPEDIA is SciFi's free encyclopedia that anyone can add to. You can search for terms here, check out the categories or just start exploring. If you think something is missing, feel free to add it! SCIFIPEDIA is a wiki dedicated to all genres of the fantastic. Probably the best-known wiki is Wikipedia, which started in 2001 and which has over 1,000,000 articles on a truly comprehensive range of topics with over a half-million contributors. They are our inspiration and, in many ways, our model. We know that the wide and committed audience for all branches of SF in all its various forms, from movies and television to books and magazines to games to UFO and ET followers, contains many people with a highly developed knowledge and strong opinions relating to that knowledge. We invite all of you to participate in creating an extensive and authoritative database of articles on all of the amazingly wide range of subjects of interest to dedicated devotees and casual consumers. A wiki is highly collaborative, with no single author solely responsible for the creation of any one entry. We will be compiling those collaborative entries with the help of as many volunteers as we can attract to the site. However, we've also decided to seek out individual contributions direct from all sorts of creators: executive producers of television shows, directors of films, screenwriters, novelists, artists and anyone else who has exerted direct control over an independent creation. These entries will appear linked with the collaborative entries but the material supplied by these creators will be locked so that it remains the creator's own words, not subject to change by other contributors. If you are a creator and wish to have a statement about your work posted in this fashion, please contact the editor at Editor.Scifipedia@scifi.com. We ask only a few things, with some necessary ground rules. No statements that are legally actionable will be permitted. If there are entries that become the subject of strong disagreements in which the process of creating consensus is repeatedly violated, the site runners reserve the right to make decisions locking entries in the same way that entries contributed by creators will be locked and also reserve the right to bar further contributions from individuals who deliberately and repeatedly disrupt the process of creating consensus entries. These requirements are summarized and detailed in our Terms of Use and in our Submission Guidelines. There are some things that SCIFIPEDIA is NOT. SCIFIPEDIA is not a place to create collaborative fanfic. SCIFIPEDIA is not a place to pitch ideas to The SCI FI Channel. SCIFIPEDIA is not a place to post speculative articles. SCIFIPEDIA is not a dictionary. SCIFIPEDIA is not an indiscriminate collector of information. SCIFIPEDIA is not a fan club or a host for arguments and squabbles. The policy for SCIFIPEDIA is that only registered members will be allowed to contribute entries. The registration will be handled though the SCIFI.COM main website, and registered SCIFI.COM members need only log in. A name and email address will be required, and you'll need to follow an authentication procedure to become a registered member. We hope you'll be as excited by the idea of SCIFIPEDIA as we are and that you'll bookmark it, visit often, use it as a regular resource, and feel motivated to contribute your thoughts and ideas to its growth. We welcome input on what we're doing and how we do it. We hope you'll all have fun with the site and we want you all to feel that you have a voice at SCIFIPEDIA. Contact us at Contact.

The Assayer is the web's largest catalog of books whose authors have made them available for free. Users can also submit reviews. The site has been around since 2000, and is a particularly good place to find free books about math, science, and computers. If you're looking for old books that have fallen into the public domain, you're more likely to find what you want at Project Gutenberg. You can browse the catalog by clicking on a link in the bar above. You need to become a member if you want to post your own reviews, add books to the database, or participate in discussions of books. Click here to become a member. Membership is free, and the only personal information you need to give is your e-mail address. (We won't spam you, and other visitors will only be able to see your address if you say it's OK.) Members can also reply to each other's reviews, creating a discussion of a book, and can choose to receive e-mail notifications when new discussion has occurred about a particular book.

Open Text Book is a registry of textbooks (and related materials) which are open -- that is free for anyone to use, reuse and redistribute. It is run by the Open Knowledge Foundation.

Textbook Revolution is the web's source for free educational materials. This is a student-run, volunteer-operated website started in response to the textbook industry's constant drive to maximize profits instead of educational value. TBR's mission is to drive the adoption of free textbooks by teachers and professors. We want to get these books into classrooms. Our approach is to bring all of the free textbooks we can find together in one place, review them, and let the best rise to the top and find their way into the hands of students in classrooms around the world. How can you help? It's easy! * If you're a PROFESSOR, you're the most important link in the chain. Browse the books. Try out sample chapters in your classrooms. If you find a book you like, review it when the new site goes live in January--professors' reviews will carry more weight. Tell your professor friends about free books. And bask in the glory your students will heap on you for bringing them free books. * If you're a STUDENT, we need you! Find a free book on our site that would work for one of your classes. Show it to your professor and let him or her know that there are top-quality alternatives to the overpriced bookstore editions. If you use a book, review it. And tell your friends! * If you're the AUTHOR of a free book, we want your stuff! For now, send a link to the book to submissions at textbookrevolution dot org. In the new site, you'll be able to submit your own work automagically. If you have a list of schools that have adopted your free book, make sure to tell us that, too! While you're here, review a free book by one of your peers (coming soon). At Textbook Revolution, you'll find links to textbooks and select educational resources of all kinds. Some of the books are PDF files, others are viewable only online as e-books. Most books are aimed at undergraduates, but there are at least a few resources at every level, from kindergarten to post-doc. All of the books are offered for free by their respective copyright holders for online viewing. Beyond that, each book is as individual as the author behind it.

The Global Text Project will create open content electronic textbooks that will be freely available from a website. Distribution will also be possible via paper, CD, or DVD. Our goal initially is to focus on content development and Web distribution, and we will work with relevant authorities to facilitate dissemination by other means when bandwidth is unavailable or inadequate. The goal is to make textbooks available to the many who cannot afford them. We have experience with developing a free textbook, XML: Managing Data Exchange. This project started in January 2004 when a graduate class at the University of Georgia wrote the first version of the book. Subsequent graduate and undergraduate classes at the University of Georgia and elsewhere have improved and extended the book. It has been used as the XML text in a variety of classes, and in each case the class has been required to leave the book in better shape than they received it at the beginning of the term. Experience with this project and the success of WikiBooks has convinced us that we can further develop the idea of free and open content books to increase the value of these books to students, particularly those who cannot afford paper-based textbooks. We want to add several innovations to improve the quality of the books.

OLPC is a wiki, or publicly editable website, about the One Laptop per Child association and its projects. The wiki focuses on children's education, access to networks of collaboration, and access to knowledge in every region, in the local langugae, and for every age range and subject matter.

The United States Commonwealth of Virginia Secretary of Technology Aneesh Chopra and Secretary of Education Tom Morris announced the release of a Request for Collaboration (RFC) to career and technical centers, school divisions, and institutions of higher education calling for assistance in the development and publication of an open source physics "Flexbook" for Virginia. The Virginia Physics "Flexbook" project is a collaborative effort of the Secretaries of Education and Technology and the Department of Education that seeks to elevate the quality of physics instruction across the Commonwealth. Participating educators will create and compile supplemental materials relating to 21st century physics in an open?source format that can be used to strengthen existing physics content. The Commonwealth is partnering with CK?12 (www.ck12.org) on this initiative as they will provide the free, open?source technology platform to facilitate the publication of the newly developed content as a "Flexbook" ? defined simply as an adaptive, web?based set of instructional materials.

The WIKI is at this moment (october 2008) in it's early stages so please help us out to make it something worthwhile.

Digital Universe is a project to create a "new network of portals designed to provide high-quality information and services to the public". Subject matter experts are to be responsible for reviewing and approving content; contributors are to be both experts (researchers, scholars, educators) and the public.

While the public will be invited to contribute to some articles in the Digital Universe encyclopedia, they will be supervised by "stewards" whose role is to guarantee quality and accuracy of the articles. In addition, parts of the Digital Universe will be editable only by credentialed experts.

Ask a question about a technical detail? Our forums exist to help you get even more value from the books we feature.

Valkaama is a collaborative Open Source Movie Project. Scenes have already been shot and will be published soon. Everyone is encouraged to contribute to the post-production process in order to complete the movie. With your help our digital culture will be enriched by a unique Creative Commons licensed film. Help us to create, share, remix ... and to finish the Valkaama movie. The Valkaama movie has been shot in summer and autumn 2007 with drama school students in and around the city of Krak?w, Poland. Defying the odds of a nonexistent budget and almost no free time on the part of the actors, the shooting schedule has been completed. The movie itself is based on a novel written by Hendrik Behnisch, a young German writer who during his travels fell in love with Sweden and the Swedish culture. So when deciding to work on a drama, for him it was obvious to place the setting in Scandinavia. Once I came upon his novel I immediately was thinking of transforming it into a movie. And having to work on a thesis for my university degree I saw the chance of connecting something I have to do with something I want to do. With only a script and a camera in my hand I came to Poland where I spent a lot of time before due to private reasons. Fortunately I was able to establish a contact with drama school students. Realizing the scenes with non-professional actors wouldn't have been possible since some of the characters are quite complex. After finishing the scenes some time passed by in which we made a rough cut to see whether the film would work out. Additionally the trailer song was recorded, remixed and the trailers were realized. And with having sufficient material now to attract people to the Valkaama project, the time has finally come to publish it and to go Open Source. As far as I know this is a unique step. There are already some Open Source Movies and some more Creative Commons licensed movies. But concerning the Open Source movies, they all publish their sources after releasing the movie so everyone is free to remix the finished film. There are only a few projects so far which open up the production process itself. But none of them has started filming yet.* *If I am wrong here, I'd be happy to hear about.

MixedInk takes a fresh approach to collaborative writing. It's a fun, democratic and elegant way for people to weave their best ideas together. MixedInk was founded in April 2007 to develop a web-based tool that: * Allows organizations and informal groups to harness the collective wisdom and power of their stakeholders. * Empowers communities to mobilize, dissent constructively, develop consensus and affect change. * Further democratizes the production and distribution of information and opinion on the internet. Yeah, we know. These are pretty lofty goals. Some might say we're downright crazy. We just can't help thinking this whole internet thing has a lot of unfulfilled potential. MixedInk is a work in progress. If you've got any ideas about how we can improve it, we'd love to hear from you.

Current TV is an Emmy award winning independent media company led by former U.S. Vice President Al Gore and businessman Joel Hyatt. The cable television network went on the air at midnight EDT (4:00 UTC) on the morning of August 1, 2005. A second network, operated in the United Kingdom and Ireland started its operation March 12, 2007 for Sky and Virgin Media subscribers. A third network, operated in Italy started its operation February 8, 2008 for SKY Italia subscribers and after also for 3 subscribers. Current TV features "pods", or short programs, of which a portion are created by viewers and users. An experimental Canadian show called ZeD was the first programmed broadcast of user-generated video content. Other inspiration for Current TV came from a 1990s series on MTV called UNfiltered, where the network sent cameras to viewers in order to report on stories they thought were important. Current TV is the first American 24-hour network based around viewer-created content, which it dubs VC2.

Debatepedia is a wiki encyclopedia of debates, arguments, and supporting quotations. Its mission is to become "the Wikipedia of debates". It is a place where we can all work together as editors, via the same wiki technology driving Wikipedia, to frame the arguments in public debates that we all need to think through. These are debates in our neighborhoods, cities, states and provinces, nations, and in an increasingly interconnected world. These are debates that we care deeply about because they matter to our lives, our neighbor's lives, and the lives of our children and the societies they inherit. Some of these debates are relevant to whether people live or die in wars or in our own societies. We need to take these debates seriously, and approach them with a fiercely critical eye. We need to fully weigh every pro and con within them, fully deliberate, take rational positions, and take action with conviction in our beliefs. Don't be complacent in your beliefs! Understand why you believe what you do and be ready to defend yourself. Debatepedia helps you do this. It helps you frame all the arguments and all the scholarly quotes in debates you care about in a simple pro/con "logic tree" structure so that you can fully deliberate, take a stand, take action, and defend yourself. The problem is that this is currently far too difficult to do. Arguments, evidence, and quotes (important to our deliberations) are scattered across the web, newspapers, magazines, journals, and books. We, subsequently, cannot view this information in one place, where we can understand opposing arguments in one sitting, and deliberate through them toward a confident conclusion. Debatepedia solves this problem with the combination of a proven "logic tree" methodology and the wiki technology that allows masses of citizen-editors like you to collaborate on scale. Like with Wikipedia, our collective efforts will produce the greatest encyclopedia of debates and arguments the world has ever seen. Think of how "the Wikipedia of debate" would change the world and the way we think through the difficult challenges we face in the twenty first century. Join this community as an editor to help advance this mission, learn and fortify your beliefs, and help apply the lessons of Wikipedia to the realm of reason.

Foodista is the online cooking encyclopedia that everyone can edit. We're revolutionizing how people learn and share about food and cooking. Better Organization We make it easy to find, share and learn about food and cooking. We're the first website to organize cooking information into four linked categories: Recipes: Combinations of ingredients. Foods: The most basic of ingredients. Either as they are produced naturally, such as apples and eggs, or with minimal processing, such as salt or flour. Cooking Techniques: Methods of preparing foods, such as baking, boiling, slicing, and braising. Kitchen Tools: All the gadgets, appliances, and equipment you use to make meals, including saucepan, chef's knife, blender, and cutting board. We Eat With Our Eyes We emphasize the beauty of cooking with big, gorgeous pictures of food, just like you'd see in a cookbook. We get our high-resolution photos from Flickr Creative Commons , but we also encourage users to upload their own photos. Community Editing We believe in quality over quantity. We developed a system to let everyone edit content to make it better. Rather than have multiple versions of the same recipe. Tools For Food Bloggers If you're a food blogger, you'll love this! We built embeddable widgets that create automated links from Foodista to your food blog. These links will help you build traffic to your blog and improve search engine rankings. Stay tuned though because future widgets will allow you to include whole recipes from the Foodista database for free! And, you can edit them to your liking. No more spending time typing out all those recipes - phew!

What is Connectipedia? Connec+ipedia is like Wikipedia in that it is made of information contributed by users. But it adds another dimension by connecting pieces of information to others, which makes it a more powerful tool in which information can be stored and accessed as in a database. Viz., the information is delineated by its connections with other information. Like an encyclopedia of connections: connec+ipedia. The connec+ipedia database is organized into three main parts: --Information about contacts and human and organization resources (people) --Information about geographic entitites (places) --Information about subjects (things) But what makes it really useful is the ability to locate information about people + places + things. Why do we need Connectipedia? People who are working to make a better world learn a lot as we do our work. How do you store what you learn? Are you always able to access it when you need it again? How do you pass it on to others? Imagine what would happen if you had a way to share what you know. Imagine what you could accomplish if you had an easy and direct way to access what others have learned who are doing similar work. Fred Meyer, the man behind Meyer Memorial Trust, once advised: "Use your brain for thinking, not as a storehouse. First, write things down so you don't have to remember them. Second, learn where to find information so you don't have to remember it." That's why Meyer Memorial Trust (http://www.mmt.org) developed connec+ipeda, based on Wagn (http://wagn.org), a free and open source software. So we would all have a place to store and find information so we can use our brains for thinking. Who makes Connectipedia work? All of us. Meyer Memorial Trust (http://www.mmt.org) developed connec+ipedia, but its community of users keep it working. You. Me. All of us. If you know something that is not yet included in connec+ipedia, please add it.
