“Linear analysis will get you a much-changed caterpillar but it won’t get you a butterfly. For that you need a leap of imagination.”
— Robert Hutchings, Chairman of the National Intelligence Council in the cover letter for Mapping the Global Future (National Intelligence Council 2004)
On the web, the raw material is data. It is often shaped (produced) by volunteers, and it costs almost nothing to replicate and distribute the resulting product. This is profoundly different than the current industrial economy. Our investment strategy is to arbitrage the difference between the capabilities of the new medium and readiness of the existing economic and social structures to exploit those capabilities. – Brad Burnham, Union Square Ventures
