Exactly! This was one of the supposed, heady, early precepts
of the Net, along with "information wants to be free."

I've been doing something analogous with my '12hr-isbn-jpeg

'published online.' Mirrors, archives, and informal
collections will outlive traditional, centrist institutional
appropriation.
