This is my introduction to Seth Godin. I enjoy his writing because he leads you to his main point through incremental steps from a general understanding or perspective and layers over it multiple perspectives. But then he aims his telescopic eyesight towards the future to give you an insight into what it all means.
In this blog entry he begins with identifying a trend where printers, such as Ben Franklin, who was a printer, came to write his own content. He goes on to describe the reversal of this trend with the computer, where writers are printing their own material.
He then talks about the potential solutions not yet found, for a job in the new economy where someone collates and leverages these DIY and Desktop publishers into a public demand.
