New media and new media institutions are different things

Chris Anderson reminds his readers of an important distinction which is sometimes forgotten: new media, like the Web 2.0, and new media institutions, like Web 2.0 business models, are different thngs.
The distinction implies that the failure or success of the Web 2.0 does not logically depend on the success or - moste often - the failure of Web 2.0 business models.
