Abstract
Most everyone has heard the rumblings on the horizon of the National Information Infrastructure (NII). To some, it is the sound of traffic: a steady roar of bytes rushing by over the Internet. To others, it is the roar of an approaching storm that threatens to flatten everything in its path. What I hear is a combination of the two. The coming of Universal Access will also produce the “Universal Publisher,” and we will soon be awash in a flood of trivia as each household finds out that they can contribute data to the growing roar.
