{{cquote|I teach for a public school in Northern New Mexico and use Wikipedia as a resource for my students. The entry on Harriet Tubman was extensive and very informative. I will share it with my middle school students. Thank you for all you do for the sake of knowledge available free to all who have access to the Internet. I made a donation today because I belive strongly in what you do. Keep up the good work!}} |

{{cquote|I love technology. I create technology, consume technology, analyze technology, invest in technology. There are so many things I think were inevitably bound to happen in the techno-social sphere - search engines, social networks - but Wikipedia doesn't strike me as one of those inevitabilities. It's not a given at all to me that a community model was the path-of-least-resistance for an Internet encyclopedia, and the fact that Wikipedia did nonetheless come together gives me comfort in our ability as people to rally around a constructive cause. |
