Reasons I'm Here

• If the Internet resembles a brain (a web of connections that individually can't do much), are there emergent features that reveal a developing mind?
• Every time I use Wikipedia I benefit from the combined effort and discipline of a great many people. It's time to see if I can be a part of this.
