As I've mentioned elsewhere I'm bullish on these collaborative pages where artists don't actually talk to each other much (Nasty Nets, etc).
Everyone does their own projects and posts them, someone could riff on it or not, but little discussion or verbally "working through a problem" occurs (Other than to maybe say "cool" meaning "I like what you did to my piece.")
I suppose it's just the alienation of the Lonely Crowd in blog form but it's true anarchy as opposed to institutionalized grant supported anarchy.
My sense is Nasty Nets "members" are scared to talk among themselves too much about what's happening on the site lest the magic bubble pop.
