Lawrence Lessig has a thoughtful post about something that I’ve been mentioning in recent talks I’ve given, but haven’t blogged much about.
I’m often asked to speak about „Web 2.0“. I personally think that people are trying to build Bubble 2.0 on top of Web 2.0. Instead of becoming a platform for the future of the Web, it’s possible that Web 2.0 is becoming the platform for the short-term future of greedy people. However, I do think that it is important to understand that the recent success and surge in innovation on the Web is due to a semi-new set of principles. Part of the principles are a return to fundamental principles. The innovation on the Web and the Internet is driven by what David Weinberger has called „Small Pieces Loosely Joined“ – a network created by small groups working together around open standards. It is and was a community of people and projects trying to connect to each other…
One of the central themes of Web 2.0 is the ability for users to control their own data and the ability for people to share and remix. In this context, many, if not most good Web 2.0 services allow users to download, link and reuse all if not a substantial part of the content they work on…
Although we can’t really expect users to initially understand the distinction, I think in the long run, users will understand that stand-alone or closed services do not allow them the freedoms that are becoming exceedingly more common in the Web 2.0 area. I do hope that the rush to Bubble 2.0 doesn’t allow companies to trample over the core principles of the Web in their drive for more ARPU (Average Revenue per User). I think it is important to keep our eyes on the ball and not lose our focus on what is driving the innovation and the increasingly rich user experience.
Ich lese Joi immer ganz gerne, da der Mann einen guten Riecher für das Morgen hat, aber auch recht gut zusammenfasst, „was Sache ist“.
