The next Internet giant company will be linking open data and providing open
access to repositories, in the process seamlessly combining both paid for
subscriptions, Creative Commons or similar license based or open source
software schemes.
Revenues will be generated among other things from online advertising streams
currently not utilized by Google or Yahoo!
In the big scheme of things this company will redefine the concept of internet
search to provide access to deep(er) web levels of data and information for
which users will be willing to pay an annual flat fee subscription.
Sound improbable? Non-profit organizations dedicated to providing global open
access will soon start exploring just such business schemes to determine if it
is feasible to fund and maintain the server farms, hard and software to do just
that.
