Individual the centre of gravity - the times still are a changin, Facebook

Filed under: Signal, Thoughts — dnw @ 4:55 pm

As the present now
Will later be past
The order is
Rapidly fadin’.
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin’.
-Bob Dylan

At last, I actually read something that points to where the real power of an open distributed web will be - with the individual as the centre of gravity and full-focus attention enabled - just like Linda Stone predicts.

The question remaining to be worked out is how business models will evolve to support such individual-centric knowledge flows and not keep relying on the silo model.

Watching Bob Dylan this morning on YouTube I thought of Facebook.

The times still are a changin.
