"Writing what to many people will be the definitive text on something is a heady experience. But more appealing is the grand, utopic vision the founders have for Wikipedia: a vast melting pot of knowledge, contributed to by people from everywhere, accessible to everyone. 'We're organization-obsessive, and knowledge-obsessive', says Alex Stinson."
I live in Stellenbosch and my photos are taken in the Western Cape.
