“The way news spreads around the network using social networks, messaging services, and of course email, is a fascinating example of the network effect in operation.
Networks become more useful the more people there are on them, and people are more likely to share news snippets and links when there are enough people listening to what they say to make it worthwhile.
And this free flow of information is, of course, one reason why the code has come about in the first place.”
