What is the Net and where is it going?
Esther Dyson, editor at large of CNET Networks, is interviewed by iMediaconnection.com about the online business model, how to market online and what and where the Net will be in five years' time. As she says, "fundamentally, what it [the Net] does is connect people". Dyson says there's no one defined business model - advertising, services, paid content, social networking all play a part. She also discounts the idea that the Net can "solve political problems. If people want to communicate, it’s certainly going to help. But just linking different cultures with the Internet -- you know, it’s not going to create a global village, unfortunately."
