The man who brought us Wikipedia, Jimmy Wales, is bringing us an "open-source magazine" about video games called "Gaming Wikia." Actually, there are four of these Wikia "magazines" — Music, cars, health and, as previously mentioned, games. Wired's Chris Kohler puts it best: Think NeoGAF, but run amock and with the abilities to edit content. Says company V.P. Dan Lewis,
The 'open-source magazines' we're unveiling today are focused largely around topics where passionate people have already started collaborating online. The launch of Tunes, Cars, Gaming and Health is a continuation of our mission to open-source the creation and development of content around every topic imaginable—so we are obviously not stopping here.
User generated content matters. Just take a look at our comments section. I'm curious to see how this pans out, though. Could be fantastic. Or not.
