為不少人提供新知識的網上百科全書維基百科（Wikipedia）雖然以其資料庫聞名，但也有其他得意搞作。維基百科日前與美國時裝品牌合作，推出聯名衣服。

維基百科及洛杉磯品牌Advisory Board Crystals（ABC）合作推出了一件印有雙方品牌標誌的白色長袖上衣。上衣亦加入了互聯網設計元素，盡顯風味。ABC於其網頁更引用哲學家Francis Bacon名言「知識就是力量」，大讚維基百科為人類提供了一個人人可自由互相分享知識的世界。

科技公司夥拍時裝品牌推出聯名產品其實不是新鮮事，但每有同類合作都能造成一輪轟動。ABC早前亦與地震預警公司Early Warning Labs合作推出地震主題的聯名系列。至於科技巨擘蘋果亦曾經於90年代推出自家品牌球鞋，可見科技公司及時裝品牌合作淵源甚久。
