Wikipedia: Did you know?

Yesterday I attended an ExactTarget event in London. The event had a keynote from the Founder of Wikipedia, Jimmy Wales. He had some interesting insights into Wikipedia to share....

- Wikipedia gets 408M unique visitors per month, this dwarfs most top newspapers combined
- There are 20M entries in 270 languages on Wikipedia worldwide
- Wikipedia has an 87% male audience with an average age of 26
- The Wikipedia audience has twice as many phd’s than that of the general public
- Wikipedia is a registered charity and it's aim is to provide a free encyclopaedia that is available to everyone.
