"Information space" still has a mystical incantation kind of feel. They are actually three systems sharing a fourth system, the addressing system in which the address doubles as a name. I realize you are trying to get a point across in that description, but I don't see what it is. I think possibly you attempting to combine a technical and a social distinction. The distinction of systems sharing a common "somethingThatMakesItANetwork" is progress. len From: Tim Berners-Lee [mailto:timbl@w3.org] I think the properites of the web as an information space in the wide sense is so valuable and important to understand that we should maybe have a separate term for it and/or make the distinction really clear.
