Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales was the latest target in The Chasers War on Everything. The Age have reported that Mr Ten Questions is still alive and well, and Jimmy Wales was his target.
Here's the transcript the Age posted of the questions that were posed to Jimmy Wales:
"Ah, Jimmy, um, look I just have 10 questions," Hansen said when he was handed the microphone during the question-and-answer session.
"First, how are you enjoying Australia?
"Second, how do our computers compare to the ones in America?
"Third, why does everyone in IT look so nerdy, yet you look like a daytime soap star?
"Fourth, Mac or PC - do you really give a shit?
"Fifth, there are 1.7 million articles on Wikipedia; how long did it take you to write them all?
"Sixth, Craig Reucassel's a bit unhappy with the photo on his page. Could you upload a better one maybe for him?
"Seventh, my dog is getting some scabs under his chin. I don't know if you can bring him in the number of a local vet?
"Eighth, Jessica Rowe and Peter Overton - will it last?
"Ninth, cracked pepper?
"Tenth, how do you feel about the fact that when I looked you up on Wikipedia this morning I changed your page to say that you were a teenage drug lord from Malaysia?"
If you haven't seen Mr Ten Questions before, he spits them out in quick succession, like a journalistic machine gun.
"Wales's nervous, confused facial expressions were a stark contrast to his typically dauntless demeanour, but he attempted to answer some. His responses were not delivered into the microphone and so could be heard only by those sitting at the front of the room."
The Agloco saga continues, however today there has been a new development. I received my first email from the company since signing up. It would appear that the viewbar is now closer to release than ever.
