Jimmy Wales was in Montreal for Webcom 2010. He chatted with Tamy Emma Pepin about a variety of subjects ranging from the concept of open source, to geotagging, memory and..werewolf!
Jimmy Wales is not "founder" of Wikipedia. He, with Larry Sanger, was a co-founder, and the junior half at that. Sanger championed the idea of implementing the wiki software and architecture, Sanger named it "Wikipedia", and Sanger nurtured most of the key policies and guidelines in the first year. But, if you want to believe Jimbo's big fib that he's the "founder" or, even more ridiculously as he once tried to get everyone to call him, the "sole founder", you go right on believing that.
Montreal sucks humongous cocks. That's all I have to say about this video.

Too bad she said "the founder", rather than "a founder". Let me know when you catch up with 5th-grade grammar, SklnHoUnD.

@thekohser If he's a co-founder, then he's still a founder. Thus, you look like an incredible fucking idiot right now.
