The Truth According To Wikipedia is a new Dutch documentary which covers the debate raised by Andrew Keen about the relative importance of amateur creation versus professional publication. I generally think Keen is mislead and misinformed and I don’t think the movie did as good of a job of presenting the value of social production and the Internet, but it was interesting, regardless. 

Fun fact learned: amateur’s etymology is from the word love. Thus, one who loves what they do. Cool spin on things like Wikipedia, blogging, etc.
