It got a whole lot fancier and prettier when that happened, but it also got boring. The recent explosion of the read/write (and view/record) Web is putting the Internet back into the creative hands of individuals and the communities they form.

As those of us who are content creators and knowledge managers strive to surf the crest of this rapid change, our most important move may be to simply get out of the way by providing playgrounds where free and freewheeling exchanges of information can take place.
