While browsing Wikipedia, a favorite tool here at Guanabee for its unlimited virtual amount of accurate information, we came upon this Public Service Announcement by Jimmy Wales, its founder. Jimmy makes a very good point about the value that Wikipedia has in peoples lives, and how you dear reader can help bring this benefit to places that dearly need these resources such as Africa and India. We were a little discouraged to see that Latin America did not make the list. Does that mean we are in the brink of being considered developed?


Ay Yimmy. Yimmy, with your eyes and your spinning globes and your careful diction. We know some brown people who could benefit from having a little Wiki in their lives. Like, for example, whichever payaso wrote this. For just five cents a day, you can ensure that Little Sandrita can live another day.
