Updated concept paper: The Consumer-Centric Knowledge Web

I've updated my concept paper entitled "The Consumer-Centric Knowledge Web - A Vision of Consumer Applications of Software Agent Technology - Enabling Consumer-Centric Knowledge-Based Computing" which discusses a conceptual framework for knowledge-based applications that keep the consumer at the center using software agent technology. This is more than simply consumer-oriented, which means that vendors at least pay lip service to consumers, but consumer-centric means that the consumer is placed at the center and has full ownership of all of their data and is in full control, and where vendors are not in a position to dictate any terms.

This concept paper is now frozen since I have accepted an offer for full-time employment with Microsoft (unrelated to anything in the paper) and will not be working on this concept as long as I am employed.
