Wikipedia? Looks good on powerpoint
MadMan points me to a post on Mobile Pundit in which we are informed that Indiatimes is planning to start an Indian version of the Wikipedia. Huh. When the internet and the wikipedia effectively tear down geographical boundaries, I wonder how Indiatimes plans to erect them again.
Perhaps they haven't yet figured out how wikis function, and are dreaming of selling wiki space the same way they sell editorial space. Or maybe such plans look good on powerpoint presentations, even if the executives involved don't quite understand what they're talking about. I can't wait to see what they try.
