''I woke up early and found myself pondering the seemingly trite "growth" metaphor for AboutUs. On further reflection I realized came to favor "gardening" over "growth" and then gardening raised to stewardship of the Earth. Here are a few more words that try to explain this vision. -- [[Ward Cunningham]]''

We use an organic metaphor for this information. All information is our "Earth". When we refer to "the Earth" we are being both respectful and somewhat vague, like the farmer, as to which parts of the Earth we are stewards.
 
 
 
Our mission is to give life to our Earth. We've begun by elevating the "about us" pages of the internet into a collaboratively editable commons. It is from this act that we take our name.
 
 
 
We assume an activist perspective with respect to our Earth. We choose to "work" the information we find so as to make it produce value we can share. The "iron" from which we make our tools is the computer. Our stewardship depends on making better tools, learning to apply them to our earth effectively, and then engaging all people in this creative activity.
 
 
 
Our activism derives from deeply held values. We struggle to voice our values but recognize that our voice alone cannot capture their uniquely human character. Our collective voices serves only to remind us that we are free to act on our values and that our actions observed and sometimes copied serves as our only sure way to guide stewardship of our information Earth.
