"antisocial production"
'Forget altruism. Misanthropy and egotism are the fuel of online social
production. That's the conclusion suggested by a new study of the character
traits of the contributors to Wikipedia. A team of Israeli research
psychologists gave personality tests to 69 Wikipedians and 70
non-Wikipedians. They discovered that, as New Scientist puts
it<http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn16349-psychologist-finds-wikipedians-grumpy-and-closedminded.html>,
Wikipedians are generally "grumpy," "disagreeable," and "closed to new
ideas."'
