Infinidim Enterprises is the name of a publishing corporation in Douglas Adams' book Mostly Harmless, fifth of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy. Infinidim buys out the original publisher of the Guide, Megadodo Publications, with plans to sell to affluent people, rather than poor hitchhikers. The company could possibly be a front organization for the Vogons, who are employed by it. Apart from its ownership of the guide, we also learn that its head editor is named Vann Harl (though in the radio series it is in fact Zarniwoop). Ford Prefect tries to over-throw Infinidim by stealing the new guide and sending it to Arthur Dent for 'safety' (whether his or Arthur's is anyone's guess). The fate of Infinidim at the end of the series is unknown. Douglas Noel Adams (March 11, 1952 – May 11, 2001) — also known as Bop Ad or Bob after his illegible signature, or by his initials DNA — was a British comic radio dramatist and author, most notably of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (HHGG or H2G2). ...
