This is good. The people who are going to do this are the ones who have the tools and access. Tim O'Reilly stands for open access and open source, and O'Reilly books are the bibles that let us all find out how technology works to build upon it. O'Reilly talked about the big picture of how the Internet is changing the way we all relate to each other and the way we share information. The Open Development Ecosystem Looking forward to how open source will change as the network changes, he discussed the value of looking at ecology as a useful metaphor for the way species cooperate, while looking out for themselves, by weaving a web in which the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
Cooperation allows the ecosystem evolve over time.
When you look at technology, you can see an ecological succession at work. You can see that it changes us, and it changes what is possible at any point in time. He explained that the organisims which by chance survive an ecological upset are found to play a big role in shaping the evolution of that new ecology. We asked Tim O'Reilly if he was willing to venture a vision of the Java TM platform five years from now for our readers today. These devices may have a Napster or Jini TM connection technology-like feel to them where they build impromptu communities and share information.
