A user by the name of JESS3 has created a video called ‘The State of Wikipedia’ that introduces the history of the popular site.
Through colorful whimsical visuals and narration from one of the founders, the video tells the story of how everything came to be. From its initial concept to its growth, this short covers just about everything you need to know about Wikipedia. Considering the company celebrated its 10th anniversary this month, I’d say it’s the perfect way to kick off the year. Check out 'The State of Wikipedia' video featured here.
