A simple online experiment quietly challenged who gets to create, control, and trust information.
On January 15, 2001, Wikipedia went live, allowing anyone to write, edit, and improve articles in real time. What began as an open collaboration experiment quickly disrupted traditional publishing models, questioned established authority, and demonstrated how participation at scale could reshape how knowledge is produced, evaluated, and distributed across the world.
From bsnsHistory, the daily podcast about the moments when business quietly reshaped the world.
Written and hosted by Ron Trucks. Research and editing by Rodney Russ. Sound design by Angela Cahoy. Music by Cody Martin and Soundstripe.
