Headline: Going beyond global capitalism
Nutshell: Open Source collaboration over the Internet will bring us to a society beyond global capitalism: a society based on cooperation and sharing instead of this day's inhumane competition.
Vision:The really important thing is not websurfing itself. It is quite like old media: people know cnn.com but do not know www.johnnysundergroundnews.co.uk (not real, just made up). So it is unjust as well as is global capitalism itself. But E-mail, forums and chats connect people in an equal way. And equality brings understanding, understanding brings cooperation, cooperation brings positive revolutions like Open Source, and this could take us beyond global capitalism.
