  Silly executives

  Mind share doesn't make money, market share does. It's easy for people with many stock options to forget this fact.
  
  Ooh, that's almost an epigram.

  No Subject Given

  i still makes a big differnce because people (and suppliers and customers) still think the web is a business joke and act consequently.
  
  I run a video distribution over the web which savesz a lot of money in terms of satellite uplinks to both videomakers and TVs, and we think should be welcome to both.
  
  But then, when we order some videomakers a video for some TV, sometimes they feel they should feed us substandard material just because we are a .com
  
  And when we get great footage for some TV, they re always surprised by the fact we know and ask the market price for it (and rather put off by that, though saving them satellite costs)
  
  But hten, we are a .com and have a reason to be, so we stick to it and try to insult people as much as possible via telephone rather than email so they don t think we re virtual but rather old economy bastards
