  An excerpt:
   
  "If you want to get five opinions from four
information professionals, just mention Wikipedia. Often
banned by professors, panned by traditional reference book
publishers, and embraced by just about everyone else,
Wikipedia marches on like a great beast, growing larger and
more commanding every day. With no paid editors and written
by almost anyone, it shouldn’t have succeeded, but it
has."
