Brion Vibber

Brion Vibber has worked on MediaWiki and Wikipedia's servers for four years, watching over its frightening growth from thousands to millions of pages, from dozens to thousands of hits per second.

ABSTRACT

Over four years, MediaWiki has evolved from a quick hack to run a little-known encyclopedia web site to the monster engine behind a heavily-used public site, while maintaining the simplicity needed for an entry-level intranet wiki. Brion reviews past and future directions for Wikipedia's software and hardware, and how modern buzzword technologies could power and simplify the wiki world.

  2. Historical trend analysis will leap to a new level of precision.
  3. We will not use history to learn from our mistakes, but to prevent them before they happen.
  4. There is little room for hiding details about our lives.
  5. An ethical war over the use of this information will arise.
