�??五年�?�的回归 12月 8, 2005

今天的Library Link of the Day推�??的文章是“Science in the web age: Joint efforts�?。在对www开始�?�其�?�明者Tim Berners-Lee 原始的信�?�交�?本�?转化的现状表示出首肯的�?�时，对于目�?科学家们对待blog之类的Web交�?工具的冷漠�?度也表达了失望：There are now some 20 million blogs, permeating almost every sector of society. But science is a glaring exception, and today there are still only a few dozen scientific bloggers.

www的�?�明�??五年�?��?回归到它本�?�的�?衷上�?�，一直以�?�人们都把它当作一个巨大的图书馆看待，包括我们这些想研究它的人。所以我们长期以�?�是在用传统的图书馆信�?�组织的�?路�?�研究网络，�?会有“网络信�?�组织与利用�?之类的课题，而今天我们�?�现，网络本质上是一个交�?平�?�，是一个信�?�共享空间（information commons）,在这个空间下�?会有web2.0�?open access�?blog�?wiki�?creative commons等等概念的生存之地。

摘录两段�?�：
When Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web in 1989, he saw it as a collaborative workspace for his fellow scientists at CERN, the European particle-physics lab near Geneva, and beyond. His creation went on to surpass his prediction that “the usefulness of the scheme would in turn encourage its increased use”. But in the rush to develop the web as a flexible way to find information, the original concept of users interacting in real time was largely forgotten. Fifteen years later, the web seems to be returning to its roots.
For most users, the web in its first decade was like a big online library, where they mainly searched for information. Today it is undergoing a subtle but profound shift, dubbed Web 2.0, to become more of a social web, not unlike Berners-Lee’s original vision.

当然，文中也�??到为什么科学家们�?度�?积�?，其中一点是害怕竞争对手，自己的�?路暴露给别人难�?被别人所利用并被超越。呵呵，也许是�?�，毕竟现实社会中的评价标准还是�?�一套模�?，�?过真正�?�明的大脑�?是�?�剽窃（plagiarism）别人的�?想而是�?�砥砺（brainstorming）�?想�?�创造的：the benefits of brainstorming their research ideas on blogs as far outweighing the risks.
