What irritates me is that the article suggest that the concept of "value generated outside of firm" surfaced in the internet of modern times - I think it's much older and also not excluding classic cooperation structure. For example:
Second hand shops, DIY car shops, allotment garden owner association

Main difference that IT provides is that it is now more practical to outsource core, everyday transactions that your life/business depend on, because somebody else can do the matchmaking and bookkeeping.
