Review:
Robert Reid explores the history of the Net from a business perspective--how a communication system nominally built for national defense and in effect taken over by education and research came to erupt as the most important medium since television--and with greater speed and intensity than any communication medium ever. Each chapter examines the Web's business development through the story of one of its pioneers--including Marc Andreeson of Netscape, Mark Pesce of VRML, Jerry Yang of Yahoo!, Halsey Minor of CNET, and more. Its an exciting story of frantic activity in a whirlwind environment and of the individuals who rode the tornado to success.
From the Publisher:
This book provides a description of how the Web influences, and will continue to influence business and enables the reader to envision the new businesses that will be created. It presumes no level of technical expertise, but focuses on explaining the impact of the technology on the business world. The story of the web is told through in depth profiles of the key personalities responsible for creating and building the Web.
