The Citizendium Project
One of the 2001 founders of Wikipedia, Larry Sanger, has announced plans to launch a rival product that will apparently attempt to reduce the flaws within the original wikipedia which has lead to a number of criticisms over the past year. The plan is to "unseat Wikipedia as the go-to destination for general information online." It's called The Citizendium Project and it will begin life as a proessive fork of the current wikipedia project and content, and plans to have expert driven content.

Citizendium is a real mouthful to say, in fact an impossibility, and if it's based around expert driven content, why does the new name not reflect that?
Agreed, it's a real mouthful. I think Larry Sanger has already has his one good idea with Wikipedia.
Couldn't agree more...
