If web2 is implemented correctly, and truly takes advantage of the "cloud community" - you'll get an automatic grouping of people to relevant content. If not implemented properly - the content gems get lost in the noise... @neil lowe - spot on.

One man's this is always another man's that. Web 2.0 is supposed to be inclusive and thus all points of view are equally valid. We will have to find content and like-minded people that we agree with on some issue as a conversation starter and explore our divergence from there. If we're lucky this might be the technology that finaly forces us to own up to our own immense subjectivity, or am I just dreaming again? I think Neil G is hitting it on the head.

I bet you they didn't think of this problem when they dreamt up that "Really Big Idea" - user generated content. But ... in the end, nothing changes. When they invented the soapbox, everyone wanted one! @gmk Yip. I bet you they didn’t think of this problem when they dreamt up that “Really Big Idea” - user generated content.

In the future it'll just be "intelligently tagged" noise :) Site like Muti have come along to put order to the chaos -- to filter content so that you skip straight to the gold -- and yet it's often riddled with meaningless nonsense. Admittedly "nonsense" is subjective, but that only serves to prove my point. One man's noise is another man's reading material for the morning. I think that there’ll always be noise.

Peer review helps selectively parse content before it even reaches you This will be the biggest filter in future when it comes to content, its just such pity the average human being, including some of the folk we revere are complete idiots who really should be stopped from adding to the gene pool.
