http://www.ted.com Law professor Yochai Benkler explains how collaborative projects like Wikipedia and Linux represent the next stage of human organization. By disrupting traditional economic production, copyright law and established competition, they're paving the way for a new set of economic laws, where empowered individuals are put on a level playing field with industry giants.

Wow! Another great Ted presentation. Really interesting!

Yes but still in wikipedia the really good articles still came from a specific person who had deep knowledge of the subject. I think the real gains here come from the freedom that comes from the destruction of beaureaucracy. It's not magic and it's dangerous to make the assumption that consensus is truth since in certain cases (scientific) one piece of hard evidence is worth more than any number of uninformed opinions about a topic.

so you'd classify yourself as a libertarian socialist....against capitalism and government regulation....wow....sounds like a polygomist commune world...lol...but hey, to each his own right....i prefer capitalism and government regulation...i think it's necessary...only thing i'm against is goverment manipulation...or capitalistic manipulation for that matter too...but i think our country's system is okay...that's me personally....

Wrong, socialism means WORKER control of the means of production. Look it up.

No one of us is stronger than all of us.
Derek0783 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
umm...in economics, socialism means government control of the means of production...can I mock you by saying, "BUT GOOD TRY"....

This is the most inspiring video I have seen this year! I must show this to my member of parliament.
cromicus (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
No, I think socialism means lack of government control. But good try.

You think socialism means government control. Read up on it.
