Virgil Griffith is someone I am proud to look up to. In a moment of inspiration, he created a program called Wikipedia Scanner that lets you know who has been editing articles on Wikipedia and what they've been removing. Not surprisingly, the revelations have left many giant corporations and even the Whitehouse staff in a tailspin. For those of you that know me and my "power to the people" philosophy, this is defintely 1-0 to the little guys.
