The open web is not going away

Monument Valley on a Clear Blue Sky Day Dries Buytaert and Matt Mullenweg recently posted calls to arms in defense of the "open web." I, too, am a believer in the open web. It delivers on the promise of the Internet: a world in which everyone is connected, and you can command as much attention as your content deserves.
