23. Documents used to be more like an artifact…
properly formatted business letters with high
latency, high transaction costs and all this
artifice around the structure of the document.

24. Then the web came, reducing the focus on
formatting and adding a collaborative element,
but keeping in place a certain level or linearity.

25. With the advent of Evernote and the erstwhile
Google Wave, documents have become more
abstract, mixing images, text, communications,
web pages and whatever else onto a digital
canvass.

26. Underlying all of this, what’s really going on is the
business interaction you want to have.
The point of the document is you usually either record
something for yourself or to have an interaction with
another human being. And I think we can gradually
start peeling away layers of artifice and try to get down
to the raw core of that interaction.
