Talk:Mindpixel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

  • There is a similarity between Mindpixel and Wikipedia in that both projects are trying to build a body of consensual material, although their approaches differ.

[edit] Is it still alive ?

Is it me, or mindpixel is a near death project ?

It looks like the project home page is a pretty still state, and the webpage of Chris McKinstry is not valid anymore.

I did not hear from it since a long time and all news seems to be dated 2 years ago.

Not sure how to update the current article to reflect that state of affairs... As of October 17th 2004 the project statistics indicates:

Users: 50,779 Mindpixels: 1,435,127 Minimum Estimated Value: $ 358,781.75

I'll try to come back in a few weeks to see if it has changed much.


I've been watching the site and it does seem well past its peak of popularity. I count there are between 50 and 200 mindpixels entered per week at present. Chris McKinstry also seems to be silent . He was involved in anti war demonstrations in Iraq in spring 2003 before the invasion and has been silent since then. See article posted by him " A Hacker Goes to Iraq " [1] Lumos3 21:59, 17 Oct 2004 (UTC) ___ a few new postings are now available


Can someone please add:

Mindpixel GAC-80K (80,000 Propositions with a Corresponding Measure of Human Semantic Coherence) [2] (3.5mb of text)

Chris McKinstry is dead (January 2006), and it looks as though this project died with him. --- I queried Mr Spivey about the pixels but he only had the 80k set
