As I commented on the post, Chris Anderson says, people pay for your 'free stuff'.  They do it by giving you their time.  When they do so, your online property becomes more valuable.  Down the road you can reap the rewards, if you wish, by doing something that generates money with that rich asset you have created.  At the very least you can sell it to someone else.

Loved the Wired article, Maki's post, and your comments Barry. Some gems of opportunity in the info.

Thanks for the compliments but it's Chris Anderson's thoughts not mine.  I find he is a very sharp cooky.

What's impressive is the quality of content Maki attracts in his posts. Amazing how magnetizing the approach is.
