Who are Wikibon Members?


People have been asking me lately to describe the Wikibon member base in more detail. Since we launched the new site the day after Labor Day last year, we’ve begun requesting new members provide a bit more information about who they are and their area of expertise when they register. The vast majority of folks that sign up for Wikibon provide a title and the subject matter about which they are most passionate.  I’m really happy about that so we can learn more about our members and provide more new and interesting services.

Wordle might seem pointless but it’s actually very cool. It’s not that I’m excited just seeing the giant “Wikibon,” which is prominent because it’s cited a zillion times in the About page. The subtleties of Wikibon are what drive my passions. You’d expect to see things like Gartner, Meta, IDC and Forrester because our founders and early contributors had backgrounds at these research giants. And it’s not surprising to see Wells (as in Wells Fargo) and Pfizer and other organizations that advised us in the beginning– all new companies need advisers from the good people they wish to serve.
