Git was another revolution. Shirky pointed out that source control systems had been around for decades, but Git exploded in popularity and found uses outside of simply tracking code. Git spawned GitHub and a number of clones, and attempts to use Git to track things that were not code. For instance, Shirky pointed to Open-Knesset an attempt to scrape Israel's parliament for proposed laws, start a branch, show how it should be re-written and debate the changes.

households spend more than half of 1 percent of their time online at Wikipedia. The site produces nothing pecuniary owing to its ban on advertising. Yet, it is clearly preferred by many readers, at least judging by the declines in both MSN's Encarta and traditional encyclopedias. Because household revenue for access comes in at more than $35 billion, a reasonable first guess puts Wikipedia's value at more than $175 million in unmeasured revenue a year in US GDP.
