Intellipedia for the Government

Although the US Military is good at putting pressure on soldiers that blog, encouraging them to shut them down, they still have an appreciation for intelligence sharing. The U.S. Intelligence community has been reported as being hard at work on an internal version of the well-used Wikipedia type system, named Intellipedia.

With so many communication issues being talked about (lack of communication, mostly) this is no surprise and might be fruitful if kept secret and secure. The goal is to get the intelligence community to collaborate on information and share between them using this system. The qustion in many minds is if the system will really be put to use. With so many veils of secrecy, how much information is too much information?

Well, they seem to at least be working somewhat well as 28,000 pages and 3,600 registered users are reportedly already actively adding information to the setup…all this within seven months. I’m sure as many realize that the intelligence displayed will mostly be “need to know” type information, even internally, because the practice is still in place.

Hopefully they will keep this between the community members and the government…we don’t want Google bots crawling this type of stuff, do we?
