"The irony is that Wikipedia actually signals the end of the encyclopedic vision. It's only when you actually try to implement that view of collective knowledge that you realize how fond and delusional it is. When you deposit this multitude of strangers in a single place, you shouldn't be surprised when you come back and find nothing but a jumble of footprints in the mud. That's actually a fair picture of what human knowledge has always been, but it was never so evident before."
