Lego Era
“The Internet is entering its Lego era. Indeed, blocks of interchangeable software components are proliferating … and developers are joining them together to create a potentially infinite array of useful new programs.”
--John Markoff, The New York Times, April 5, 2006
OCLC Online Computer Library Center
Library 2.0
“Library 2.0 is about small pieces of software loosely joined, … requires business models where multiple vendors bring value to consumers together … to reduce duplication of effort and reduce barriers to innovation…”
--Paul Miller, “Library 2.0: the challenge of disruptive innovation.”
