Not everyone cares enough to go write\update an entry on Wikipedia. In fact, 99% of Wikipedia users only read content... Its enough to have that 1% of users who care enough to make Wikipedia what it is... So, in the context of Fiddme, if we get those core users who care enough to blog, post pictures etc., and give them the tools to organize the information the way they want it, they can create something that's useful for everyone...

After all, not everyone wants to go to a blog and comment on the news, many people still like traditional newspapers (reading a single expert). Anyway, it'd be interesting to try.
