PR and Wikiality
Apparently, Wikipedia is the encyclopedia anyone can edit, except for PR professionals (and Stephen Colbert). Constantin Basturea points out that Wiki-marketing, wherein a certain U.S. based PR agency was banned from placing articles on Wikipedia for pay. PR should remain as transparent as possible and this version of wiki-payola certainly doesn’t help the case for collective intelligence. Wikipedia has smart people at the helm who can help control abuse on the site, just like the collective community over at digg.
