Karma Distribution

Credit for the name "Wiki Wednesday" goes to Phil Wolff, who had a flash of inspiration at Supernova (even though he wasn't the first to use the term).

Mad props also to Russell Beattie and Mike Rowehl of Mobile Monday, for starting alliterative tech days, and to the Tag Tuesday folks (you know who you are) for making it a trend! :-)
