I think its very important for us to engineer ways to perpetuate human culture as expressed on the web. Having been privileged to witness the birth of the Internet and the subsequent explosion in human expression as described by the Web, I'm very concerned that we are losing so much with every new site update, every change/refactor of existing communities, every death of a blog. I remember so many wonderful, enriching things happening in the early days of the Web, which are all gone now .. being replaced with terrible instruments of cultural devolution.
