Anderson’ in 2004 inWIRED magazine.
 Editor in chief ofWired Magazine.

book in 2006
“The LongTail: Why the Future of Business
Is Selling Less of More”

February 2003 essay by Clay Shirky,
"Power Laws, Weblogs and
Inequality“
 80/20 rule: roughly 80% of the
effects come from 20% of the causes
by Pareto.
Introduction
(LongTail)..
 Long tail is more about Misses than Hits.
 It supports niche markets.
 Its all about internet.
 From scarcity to abundance.
 The LongTailTheory describes how the Internet has
influenced economics, commerce and consumption.

The LongTail:
Three Forces
Force 1: Democratize the tools
of production
Force 2: Democratize the tools
of distribution
Force 3: Connect supply and
demand

How search
engines work?
(The Paradox
ofChoice)
The “Long tail”
rules
 Make everything available, no rejections
 Help people find it, with filters
 Lower the costs
 Let customers do most of the work
 One distribution and filter method cannot fit it
all
 One price does not fit all
 One category does not fit all
 Share information
 Recommendation
Example: Film
Industry
The Head is a high street film retailer such as Blockbuster.The LongTail
is an online film distribution service such as Neftlix.Source: Lucy Richardson and Emma Sugarman
Example: Film
Industry
(contd..)
 This means that high street shops (the Head) that sell
films are gradually becoming less popular due to the
restrictions they experience in terms of shelf-space.
 Internet retailers (the LongTail) do not experience this
as they do not have a physical shop.Their unlimited
space shelf allows them to provide for niche markets,
increasing their customers as they have a wider variety
of products.
 The Head may contain: Cinema chains such as
Cineworld, Odeon; film retailers such as HMV,
Blockbuster etc.
 The LongTail may contain: Internet sites such as
Netflix,YouTube, LOVEFiLM etc.; iTunes etc.
 Due to the growing accessibility of the Internet, more
and more films are being downloaded online rather
than bought in the shops.
Example: Film
Industry
(contd..)
 Advantages:
 Films are more available online, increasing views and
popularity.
 Facilities such as film forums allow customers to give
feedback, helping the film industry to improve.
 People can narrow down their choices of film via
filtering services.
 Customers can see what films are similar to those that
they like, broadening target audiences for other films.
 Recommendations.
Example: Film
Industry
(contd..)
 Disadvantages:
 Illegal downloads.
 High street shops lose sales as customers resort to
online purchases.
 The atmosphere of going to the cinema is lost.
