Ya but not a very good link, because there's nothing about the LDD parts library
or the fan efforts at Ldraw (that I'm aware of). Interesting article, I agree
with the thesis, the LEGO market does have long tail characteristics which the
company does exploit (and could do better at), but a bit too breathless and
lacking in basic research of references...
