Was the first ever book about grebes of our world actually the last one too?
Web 2.0 technologies mean that creative endeavours are becoming more and
more collaborative. No longer will a single book about grebes have one
author. The future will be built by the wisdom of crowds.
Instead of solitary Germans working alone, many people will come together to
write new grebe books, perhaps using Twitter, weblogs, and Facebook.
That's my opinion, anyway.
