which brings to mind the non-substantive, non-nutritious "information" we clamour for. And entertainment, evidently.
Another Chinese intellectual/editor, Xu Zhiyuan, was paraphrased as saying, "The Web has a democratizing potential, but it privileges influence over substance ..."
I need to think more about that.
