Many years ago, someone told me that there were mobile games (originally developed in Japan) that were timed to be played between train stops. From start to finish. From stop to stop. Attention, engagement, activity, conclusion, reward. I never forgot this.

The looming platform opportunity is one where content can be created, atomized, assembled, distributed, culled, re-combined and re-distributed. Sized and valued as appropriate.

I call this the open web foundry...where creators generate bite-size content that can get consumed, distributed, re-constituted and redistributed. Original and recombinant content with its source DNA embedded (and destinations on file).

But this time, the bite-sized content, and not just people, must become social.
