"The Workers should appropriate the means of production", Karl Marx.
Marx was seeing ahead of his time. He was already thinking about the Web 2.0.
What do we call Web 2.0 ?
Web 2.0 refers to user-generated websites such as Ebay, Wikipedia, Youtube, Blogger, Myspace, Second Life, Flickr, etc... The users create the contents, and the websites just bring the technology to make it possible.
Power is shifting :
"To find something comparable, you have to go back 500 years to the printing press, the birth of mass media – which, incidentally, is what really destroyed the old world of kings and aristocracies. Technology is shifting power away from the editors, the publishers, the establishment, the media elite. Now it’s the people who are taking control", Rupert Murdoch
