In December 1996 I published on the web around 150 of my poems under the title 'Rebel ar y We' ('Rebel on the Web'); subsequently changed in 2005 to 'Rhedeg ar Wydr' (''Running on a Glass (roof)''). They were published on the open web, with no charge to access them. Little did I think at the time that it would take 20 years for the cultural sector in Wales to follow suit. Some establishments such as the National Library of Wales and Coleg Cymraeg (Federal University) opened their doors, others, such as the BBC, carefully and gradually unlocked their doors, and others such as Cadw (the counterpart of English Heritage) kept their doors tight shut, with a 'Crown Copyright' notice clamped on every one of their two million images and text. | In December 1996 I published on the web around 150 of my poems under the title 'Rebel ar y We' ('Rebel on the Web'); subsequently changed in 2005 to 'Rhedeg ar Wydr' (''Running on a Glass (roof)'').
