Agreed! My worry is that big publishers, whose money gives them clout,
will steer this technology in the wrong direction. In retrospect, saying
to ignore them was misplaced hyperbole. Just don't them set direction
alone; many will see the new paradigm as a huge threat to their future.
Those who don't are likely to use the same values that have made them
successful in the past, which will be a mistake.
