Corporate use of MediaWiki


Barrett, author of the book MediaWiki (ISBN 978-0-596-51979-7), has received media coverage for his deployment of MediaWiki in corporate environments.




Gentle Giant


Barrett has been active in the resurgence of 1970s progressive rock band Gentle Giant from the 1990s onward. He created the official Gentle Giant Home Page in 1994, and though it began as a fan site, it was adopted by the band and is listed as the "Official Gentle Giant website" on the band's CD re-releases.
In 1996, Barrett compiled a 2-CD set of their songs for PolyGram entitled Edge of Twilight. Later, he also helped to coordinate the creation of the boxed sets Under Construction and Unburied Treasure.




Humor


In 1988, Barrett wrote and recorded the song "Find the Longest Path," a parody incorporating an NP-complete problem in computer science and the frustrations of graduate school. It has been played at mathematics conferences, incorporated into several YouTube videos by other people, and independently performed by a choral ensemble at ACM SIGCSE 2013. Computer scientist Robert Sedgewick ends his algorithms course on Coursera with this song.
