In the network economy the more plentiful things become, the more valuable they become.

Change comes in various wavelengths. There are changes in the game, changes in the rules of the game, and changes in how the rules are changed.

Bit by bit the logic of the network will overtake every we atom we deal with.

In the network economy a firm's primary focus shifts from maximizing the firm«s value to maximizing the network's value.

To prosper, feed the web first.

Every time a closed system opens, it begins to interact more directly with other existing systems, and therefore acquires all the value of those systems.

Letting go at the top is not an act against perfection, but against short-sightedness.

Following the free also works in the other direction. If one way to increase product value is to make products free, then many things now free may contain potential value not yet perceived.

The great benefits reaped by the new economy in the coming decades will be due in large part to exploring and exploiting the power of decentralised and autonomous networks.

Eventually technical standards will become as important as laws.

The network economy has moved from change to flux.

The law of plentitude is most accurately rendered thus: In a network, the more opportunities that are taken, the faster new opportunities arise.
