well worth the time to read. multiple times. >the free and fast flow of information enables decentralization i was a believer. big time. starting in 99, was helping democratize telecom via VoIP. ate up long tail theory like candy. but now i think we were incorrect in thinking the problem was only on the supply side - the monopolies (of that day) control of the supply side. that was a problem, but there are two sides of the hose. the other side of the hose is us. 24 hours in a day. 1440 minutes. minutes increasingly bombarded as the supply side of the hose has widened, and the hose now lives in our pockets instead of on a piece of furniture. i still believe decentralization will occur - simply because things do usually balance over time (or at least the pendulum moves back and forth) - but won't it take more than 'fixing' the supply side?
