Why can't podcasts just be podcasts - and Wikipedia be Wikipedia? I fail to see the point in trivializing these two communications technologies from the vantage point of this senseless apples-to-oranges comparison.
There is a nice connection shared between the two in that RSS and Wikipedia are both strongly associated with Aaron Swartz, though that's never addressed in the article.
