There is a trend towards "semantic web" and distributed repository of content in the web. It is a major change from "website-centric" model. In not so remote times users became members of a community around one website which provided them with ability to publish and ability to form a community: that is to comment each-other's content, to share information in a number of ways. Today this model changes. Ability to publish content is now a commodity. Everyone has access to one or another blogging tool and does not need much technical knowledge. How about sharing information and forming a community? Well, it seems web itself is becoming a community with the help of XML (and xml-based protocols).
