Auf der Konferenz Wikipedia - ein kritischer Standpunkt in Leipzig diskutieren Forscher verschiedener Wissenschaftsbereiche an diesem Wochenende die Funktion und Entwicklungen in der Online-Enzyklopädie Wikipedia. Am ersten Tag standen die Wikipedia als Politikum und die Politik in der Wikipedia im Vordergrund. Der Direktor der Leiziger Universitätsbibliothek Ulrich Johannes Schneider sieht in der Online-Enzyklopädie eine zwangsläufige Folge: "Enzyklopädien wollten immer ins Internet – in Büchern waren sie eigentlich immer falsch aufgehoben." Viele Probleme der Wikipedia seien aber keineswegs neu. So stritten bereits Pioniere wie Denis Diderot und Johann Heinrich Zedler darum, welche Artikel sie in ihre Werke aufnehmen wollten und wie das Wissen zu organisieren sei. Gemeinsam sei den Enzyklopädien jedoch die Orientierung am Leser: "Diese Werke bemühen sich, das Wissen auf eine gleichmäßige Entfernung zum Benutzer zu bringen."

"For adoption of new technologies in science, it has to be an order of magnitude more useful than current tools. We just don’t have the time to waste learning new tools that only marginally increase our productivity."

The successful organizations of the future, be they states, corporations, communities, or collectives, will be radically open. Radically, unlike anything we’ve seen today. The future of computing will be about the absence of computers as we know them. The step away from the desktop model of interaction will be the first down a long road of abandoning the ideas we’ve come to take for granted. First, the desktop will go. Then, the web.
