The Essex founder's page is dedicated to those people in the Essex area that initially made the Essex WikiXM news a reality. Without their initiative, foresight and social fortitude the Essex 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 Essex founders page for life. There are many venues to get the news but WikiXM was initiated by your founders, for the people of Essex, to create the news they saw fit.
WikiXM - Essex, IL is the people's news source; for the people, by the people.
