Editor's Notes

  • #2 This ain't your parent's information super highway. We all like to talk about the Information Age, explosive growth and change. The internet isn't a collection of pipes. It's a living, breathing, growing and shrinking global community and dialogue. This slide shows a few of today's startups. Some of them will be out of business before everyone has seen this presentation. News ones will have taken their place. The ratio of Home Runs like Google and Facebook is much like the ratio of actors to Academy Awards winners for Best Picture.
