Without-a-clue train?

Hugely enjoyed reading World of Ends by Doc Searls and David Weinberger. (Thanks to The Obvious for pointing me in that direction initially.

Two quotes that really seem to summarise where they're coming from:
the Internet was designed to be the simplest conceivable way to get bits from any A to any B
and
But because its designers were smart, they made the Net too stupid for that

I'm not sure how the people who do something great and get it on b3ta feel about 'anyone can add value to an edge' when their hosting provider closes them down for hitting their bandwidth limits though...
