🕑 1 hour 25 minutes Ward Cunningham is the inventor of wikis (although he prefers to use the mass noun "wiki"), which started with his website WikiWikiWeb in 1995; by an incredible coincidence, this episode is being released on the exact 30th anniversary of the launch of WikiWikiWeb. Ward is also a computer science pioneer, and was heavily involved in the development of design patterns and agile programming. Since 2011, he has headed the development of the software Federated Wiki, originally known as Smallest Federated Wiki.
