Personalisation, the Next Killer App.
from the nitty-gritty dept
An interesting article by Ed Zander, President of Sun. He takes us through why he believes personalisation is the key technology for the future. He mentions some interesting but slightly foreseeable technologies. Although, he doesn't seem to draw the readers attention to the fact that there are a ton of infrastructure plays that many budding start-ups could fill within his scenario (and possibly beating Sun to the goal). I guess he'll also have to work on a new slogan when .com is no longer relevant, maybe the wireless.net people?Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
