Liever lui dan moe -- Web 2.0

Leuk dat social networking verhaal en al die Web 2.0 verhalen over user generated content, maar wie verdient er nou wat aan? Ik vroeg me dat al eerder af, vandaar de eerdere post deze week (hier). Vanmiddag deze online column gelezen met zo'n beetje hetzelfde verhaal.

"Even if we grant that traffic numbers are unreliable and that page views are not the only way to measure traffic, the trend seems clear: A few big sites increasingly dominate the web
....
What's being concentrated, in other words, is not content but the economic value of content
....
In this view, the attention economy does not operate separately from the cash economy; it's simply a means of creating cheap inputs for the cash economy.

It strikes me that this dynamic, which I don't think we've ever seen before, at least not on this scale, is the most interesting, and unsettling, economic phenomenon the Internet has produced."
