What Does Yahoo!'s Delicious Decision Mean for the Social Web? - Alexandra Samuel - Har... - 0 views

  • Given the source and Yahoo's decision to refrain from comment, the rumor is now widely taken as fact. And it's a fact that should trouble every user of the social web.
  • What do we users pay for the privilege of keeping our bookmarks online and accessible from any Internet-connected computer, 24/7? Not a thing. Not a cent, anyhow. But we're contributing in other ways. Every time I store a bookmark in Delicious, I'm giving the system another piece of information
  • You might call that point of common interest a relationship. And for many Delicious users, those relationships are a key benefit to using the bookmarking system
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • Those relationships, as much as the bookmarks themselves, represent a common asset. Yahoo! doesn't own the relationships among its users, any more than a party host owns the relationships among her guests.
  • It's the bargain that underpins much of the social web. Twitter gives us 140 characters worth of storage and a killer API, and we fill it up with our latest thoughts and experiences. Foursquare gives us a nice way of converting GPS locations to actual intuitive locations, and we give it the scoop on where we hang out. Facebook gives us a way to connect with friends, and we tell it who we know and what we have to say to them. This bargain amounts to the world's most ambitious marriage of public and private value creation. On the one hand you've got private companies trying to monetize their social networks and web apps, generating at least enough revenue to keep the lights on. And on the other hand you've got individuals who voluntarily engage in the social production of common value:
  • It's that collectively created value that distinguishes today's social web from previous generations of on- and offline media.
  • the only imaginable reason to shut down instead of selling is to avoid offering a competitive advantage to another company, in a truly egregious example of placing competition ahead of customers.
  • countless blog posts about different ways to use Delicious
  • all those bookmarks! — add up to an investment
  • The investment of users like me is what makes Web 2.0 fundamentally different from Web 1.0,
