to me, the whole media-wiki thing seems too clone all over in a bad way, it smoothes the identities away from the www space ..
The web has always been about sharing content. The identity thing is something that people tacked on it however they could. The original WikiWikiWeb was about content and just content. MediaWiki isn't much different, it only has a broader definition of content.
Maybe you still want years and years of shovelfuls and truckfuls and planetfuls of different user interfaces that are different from each other for the only reason that people want to differentiate each other. If you were actually focusing on content you wouldn't want that.
it just next to google, working together for globalisation of the web.
The problem with globalisation as it's been portrayed in news is that it's the one-sided story of a group of investors that want to have more power than governments. Globalisation is also about people around the world being more connected to each other, and it is also other things, but those investors precisely want you to confuse the several facets of globalisation.
