Technology Happens, It's Not Good, It's Not

I Have Been Quoted Saying That, In The Future, All Companies Will Be Internet Companies. I Still Believe That. More Than Ever, Really

I Think Amazon Is The Preeminent Pioneer In Building A New Way Of Doing Commerce: Personalized, Database-driven Commerce, Where The Big Value Is Not In The Purchase Fulfillment, But In Knowing As Much About A Customer Base Of Ten Or Twenty Million People As A Corner Store Used To Know About A Customer Base Of A Few Hundred. In Today's Mass-merchandising World, That's Largely Gone; Amazon Is Trying To Use Computer Technology To Re-establish It.

A Fundamental Rule In Technology Says That Whatever Can Be Done Will Be Done.

Most Companies Don't Die Because They Are Wrong; They Die Because They Don't Commit Themselves. They Fritter Away Their Momentum And Their Valuable Resources While Attempting To Make A Decision. The Greatest Danger Is Standing Still.

Just As We Could Have Rode Into The Sunset, Along Came The Internet, And It Tripled The Significance Of The Pc.
