The Costs of Asymmetry

Doc Searls is right on:

How many small and home office (SOHO) businesses would be made possible by services that let people produce as well as consume?

How many small service businesses can’t grow because people can’t (or don’t bother to) run servers in their homes? How many business-building activities are strangled before they are born by prohibitively narrow upstream bandwidths?

Amen
