John, I want TV in the mix, too, for a variety of reasons, including public TV's need to find millions of additional dollars to invest in new and existing programming strands. Some of this money could come from a re-imagining of the system. I think it can be argued quite persuasively, that the current models are weighing us down.
Yes, I stand corrected - Google bought Writely in March, I believe. I even found the article I had bookmarked in del.icio.us at the time - which proves that while del.icio.us is great for storing things, it's done nothing for my memory!
