new social class emerging from the networked workplace

further to my posting earlier re where do you fit in
http://jenniferdebeer.blogspot.com/2006/06/where-do-you-fit-in.html, the following booklet seems of interest:

The Class of the New by Richard Barbrook
Netizens, elancers, cognitarians, swarm-capitalists, hackers, produsumers, knowledge workers, pro-ams... these are just a few of the monikers that have been applied to the new social class emerging from the networked workplace.
In this short book, Richard Barbrook presents a collection of quotations from authors who in different ways attempt to identify an innovative element within society – ‘the class of the new’.
