"Imagine a Web where everything you did publicly was linked by the very fact that you were represented by a URL exactly like your blog post, or your photo on Flickr, or your post on Twitter, or your correction to that Wikipedia entry, or your research paper in your institutional repository for that matter... think of the possibilities." Exactly. And if you - the user - choose the identity you will use (so that you can have one, or more than one, public persona) then issues of privacy are allayed as well.
