Not completely done listening to this one, and there are some assumptions I feel uneasy with (like, the in some of these networks reoccurring assumptions that users are basically just "content creators" aiming at in whichever way collecting and keeping followers to consume whatever they produce), but some other aspects definitely resonate, and this one about the need for collaboration rather than competition in the "open social web" space definitely standing out.
