The Social Web is built around Protocols[1]. Rather than try to compete with big tech by building a bigger monolithic system, either paid for with ads or some other way, the goal is to give folk an expansive suite of capabilities across many sites. Or in the cases of protocols like Web Annotations, anywhere they go.

That would be wonderful, but will Twitter and Instagram participate? I'm doubtful.
