The curated web and Google’s commodity

The Web of the future is the curated Web.

Web browsers became a commodity.

Web search becomes a commodity. Google, Bing, commodities. Use the search engines that don’t first show you a stream of products you’re not looking for: DuckDuckGo, Ecosia, Brave, and others.

Web search results are a commodity. The algorithm is a commodity algorithm. If you search for specialized information use newsletters, forums, rss feeds.

Start your own web site and help curate the web.
