I agree that the Web 2.0 model of contribution or two-way conversations has created a different dynamic in the term authorship. It is more collaborative in nature and increases the intelligence of the article (or should I say collaborative conversation). I believe that we are quickly approaching an inverted pyramid effect where there are soon to me more contributors than consumers and publishing model will be impacted. I also believe that the current copyright processes cannot keep up with this model. This is why I founded Numly (http://numly.com). The concept is to introduce copyright 2.0 efforts to the Web 2.0 community where a solution can keep up with real-time copyright claims and digital orphaned works and viewership tracking in a collaborative environment. Let me know what you think! Chris Matthieu, Founder Numly, inc. chris at numly.com Great blog posting!
