“There's, in fact, no reason for China to use Wikipedia,
a service based 'out there'. It's very natural for China to make its own products.” – Baidu's William Chang
“[I]t's very easy for overseas Chinese to accept Hudong.com as
the 'Wikipedia of China.' […] We think we understand the Chinese language and people better than Wikipedia. We believe we can do a better job.” – Hudong's Haidong Pan

no one knows everything, but everyone knows something
no one owns any particular thing, but everyone owns everything
Competition from within?
None
the argument for free culture always needs to include FREEDOM!
