Interesting to see that David Reed's Law is now in Wikipedia:
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed's_law>
Its all about beyond Metcalf's value of the network being n^2,
bringing in the power set of subgroups networks can form, thus
valuing the network as 2^n.
Stephen has the insight that Reed's Law is quite important and
explains the web 2.0 explosion and a will be a/the major component of
a web 3.0 future.
Nice to see its now pretty fully on the radar.
