Technology has facilitated a creativity that will fundamentally alter the democratic potential of a wide varitey of people who cannot currently participate. It is changing the way culture gets made and remade, mixed and remixed. The culture is effecting the freedom to speak and the power to speak. It is a capacity to speak differently, a bottom up democracy. Not the New York Times democracy but a blog democracy. The potential to advance and spread in the sense of progress is enormous.
