If you missed the last night's interview, here is a transcript and realplayer video of Q-and-A's interview with Jimmy Wales, the founder of Wikipedia.

I found him to be very humble and genuinely interested in "changing the world [for the better]".

  • Man how I wish I could vote Wales/Newmark for president/vice president.
  • woah, he sounds really great
  • Great interview. The funniest bit though has to be the end: LAMB: What‘s your grandmother‘s name? WALES: Irma. Yes, that's right, Jimbo's grandmother's name revealed!
  • it's weird to see him talk so much... he's far more quiet if you meet him in person...
  • Never mind that -- where do I get a transcript or video of the recent interview Charlie Rose did with Zadie Smith?
  • he's far more quiet if you meet him in person... yes, that's right. They made that film about him, "The Outlaw Jimbo Wales"
