Metcalfe's Law
From iA wiki
See also: Network | Collaboration
Metcalfe's law dictates that for two-way interactive communications, such as e-mail or p2p between computers, the value of the network rises proportionally to the square of the number of users.
Wikipedia has a detailed page on the networking effect of this law which covers the economic consequences for information in a wired world.
