Jimmy Wales will now be an advisor to the British government.

Of the things that one finds out, right? Jimmy Wales now he will be the advisor to the British government… I find the news quite interesting and very good news, since we all know the work that he has been developing Wales for a long time with wikipedia, but nothing, I leave the article that I get from VeryComputer where they make the brief review of the news.

The popular social encyclopedia Wikipedia It is the sixth most visited page in the market, it has more than 400 million users per month and Wales, one of its founders, has just been appointed as Head of the Government for Transparency and Public Data for the Government of the United Kingdom.

In this manner Wales He comes as an advisor so that all the ministries of the Executive of the United Kingdom express themselves with clarity and transparency through the Internet. He will occupy that position altruistically, that is, he will not charge for it.

Jimmy Wales worked at the University of Chicago and in the financial sector in the US, created with Larry Sanger in 2001 the virtual encyclopedia that anyone can edit.

How are you? This whole topic seems interesting to me, I don't know, you guys think.
