I am looking at it from the point of view of a harried user, which I am, and I believe that I am much more like the typical non-technical harried user than I am like the people who smoothly operate everything.

So, I was always frustrated having to write and having to cut things. Why should you have to cut anything?

We live in media, as fish live in water.

The technicalities matter a lot, but the unifying vision matters more.

Telling computer guys that they need to have permission to quote things is like having to tell little children about Death.

The World Wide Web is precisely what we were trying to PREVENT. We long ago foresaw the problems of one-way links, links that break (no guaranteed long-term publishing), no way to publish comments, no version management, no rights management.

History is fractal. The closer you look, the more complicated, yet always repeating patterns.
