[the web]

I'm trawling the 'net in preparation of Friday's NLab Workshop and trAce Commemmoration and have been searching for other people researching online literacy. I came across Nova Spivack's blog entry on "The Future of the Web." This was actually written in 2003 so interesting that he was already thinking about social software before it became the hit it is today. He's called his new vision of the internet, the "metaweb" which is an amalgamation of the Web, Social Software and the Semantic Web. Here is a diagram from Nova's site:


Note also, in 2003 Nova claimed that "within 5 years almost every Weblog will provide an RSS channel of its content." He wasn't too far off now was he?
