The Illiopolis founder's page is dedicated to those people in the Illiopolis area that initially made the Illiopolis WikiXM news a reality. Without their initiative, foresight and social fortitude the Illiopolis WikiXM news would not have happened. Like all those that have come before us, these founder saw what others couldn't - potential in a new way of doing an old medium - a new way of providing the news to the people around them. We want to thank these people by featuring them on the Illiopolis founders page for life. There are many venues to get the news but WikiXM was initiated by your founders, for the people of Illiopolis, to create the news they saw fit.
WikiXM - Illiopolis, IL is the people's news source; for the people, by the people.
