Metcalfe's law states the value of a network varies as the number of pair-wise connections between nodes, (the complete graph of the nodes). This varies as n^2. Reed's law states the value of a network varies as the number of subgroups within that network. This varies as 2^n, a much, much larger number).

Just picture this: a collection of mega websites competing to attract eyeballs v. loose networks accessible by search engines, tags and connections where you can share information, engage in conversations and co-create.
