New God




Time is changing.

It used to be
Time is money.

but now it's more true that
Click is money.

Doing something on the internet means,how to get more traffic.
Sometimes it's sad to see everything is measured based on
how much traffic it got.
It seems like a populism.
but there is also a bright side of it.
Click is equal whoever you are.
Even if you are a homeless with wifi,
even if you are a terrorist,
even if you are student or a president,
your click is just one click.
and click is done in an instance so as I said at the beginning,
time is losing its value more and more.
Time is dead.

but our new god,"click" doesn't always love what is really good.
I've found a lot of talented artists or bloggers online
and they are not paid much attention.
I hope they keep at it and don't rape their own style
just to get more attention of the new god.
It makes them miserable.

In the new economy of the clicks,
I think we should care about what they call
"Web property"

Property used to be
land,gold,or cash.
but web property must be much more important than it has ever been.

I don't even think it has been considered as a property.
I supposed web property should be contents of your blogs or webpages.
Internet won't disappear for the rest of the history though it will keep changing its form.
Those contents therefore will remain somewhere forever.
and the value of the property must be defined in a totally different way from our traditional property.

Say,a blog post,can be copied and pasted easily no matter how strict the copy right law becomes.
but sometimes it makes sense in a certain context.
and it might have to be on the page of someone special.
so the context of the post will save the property.

Internet is the most universal thing in the world but web property is the least universal thing in the world.
It should be very similar to land.
but blog post can be connected to the personality of the writer etc..so it will be more difficult and complicated to
evaluate the value.

Considering the uniqueness of web property,
we can see the very ironical situation.
Everyone is equal in the God of click.
but web property is very onymous and unique.

I've seen a "news article" to say
someone found the friendster account of Mark Elliot Zuckerberg.
It was made only 5 or 6 years ago,but because of the success of facebook,and the fact that nobody really uses friendster anymore,
and so many other "because of"s,the news article can be a news article and earn a lot of clicks.
The "because of" is the context. and the friendster account can never be replaced by any other things.

It was a long time ago when everybody shouted "new economy".
It seems to have died even before nobody understood.
and the new new economy,which consists of click and web property
might be valuable enough to be invested.
