Collective Author

1: The redefinition of someone’s else entries brings us in the era of the collective author. The idea of one’s intellectual rights (“the XIX th century law”)[1] is responsible for delay of introducing this major content creation shift. Our wiki however bares the promise oh the soon-to-come paradigmatic shift in the work place.

2: New means of content distribution (and content selling) need to be developed in terms of new content creation process. Websites like lulu already recognize the one-to-one that the new distribution process need to bare, but the content available there is still created by the single or group authors, not the collective one.
