Reviewing a stupid book, Scott Rosenberg writes, “Individually, these contributions may be crude, untrustworthy, unnoteworthy. Collectively, they represent the largest and most widely accessible pool of information and entertainment in human history. And it’s still growing. In this context, statements like ‘Web content is dead’ or ‘AOL Time Warner will dominate’ aren’t so much wrong as irrelevant. Web content is everywhere. No one can dominate the Internet. And the Web belongs to its users. That’s not the end of a story, it’s the beginning.”
