How Ebusiness Wil Rise Again
from the work-hard-now dept
Business Week has a look at the world of ebusiness where they point to relevant historical technology boom and bust cycles and point out (as many others have before) that ebusiness is likely to bounce back. However, like those other bubbles, the return of ebusiness will involve more substance than hype, and will involve lots of hard work to solve actual problems. There have been a number of similar articles, and I don't think this sort of prediction surprises most people. No one doubts the usefulness of the internet as a part of their business. It will be nice to make use of it without all the hype surrounding it.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.
