I'm not sure why the newsfeed hasn't picked this one up yet. Wikimania 2011 in Haifa, Jimbo, and Shankbone.

Wikipedia now dominates Google. It is the ultimate SEO’d website. So, it’s only natural that any coherent new media campaign would taret Wikipedia, if possible. And, Israel appears to be doing a good job so far: Jimmy Wales and Wikipedia editor David Shankbone have been two of the most active Wikipedians to encourage this near-comical relationship between Wikimedia Foundation + Israel. I’m ashamed to admit I haven’t noticed this until today! But this appears to go back 3-4 years now.
