sometimes the most simple things are the hardest to see clearly:
“Email will become the killerer app. It continued to work when all else failed. Communication – not consumer storefronts – is the core value provided by the net and email is the star. The best things on the net make things easier and faster. Seems simple, but many of the failed business propositions of the
past year seemed to go in the opposite direction.”
