Dave Winer makes an interesting point. Meanwhile the general stagnation in the Software Industry, which is the core the western economy now, is a big problem. We're stuck behind a horribly inefficient system for trying out new ideas. A Holly Wood movie gets much more funding than a breakthrough software idea. That seems out of whack to me. The Venture Capital industry doesn't get money into the hands of the unemployed technologists in Silicon Valley. We could do so much better than we are doing. There are so many people who now would appreciate a good job with a nice steady salary and a health plan. [OK], the VC-s don't want to make that kind of investment. Who does??
