Summary: Focused on the future
Review: This is a great book for anyone who understands that the internet is wave of the future, but does not know how he or she can take advantage of it. Want to know how an average person can profit on the net? Read this book! I have read the other reviews and understand that there are some that have a clear agenda in mind. People just like this told Henry Ford the automobile was just a fad and would not last. They also questioned the future of the telephone. Some are saying the same about the internet. Read this book and decide for yourself! The key to success on the internet is to find the right vehicle. Dreambiz.com puts you in the drivers seat. Ultimately, it is up to you to step on the gas.

Summary: Quick read on how the Internet is changing Commerce.
Review: This is a great book on how the Internet is changing commerce and the demand for more personal interaction. How will people find their way through millions of web sites? By referral from their friends and family. High Tech/High Touch makes a lot of sense and I think most people will think so also.

Summary: The Inevitable Tsunami
Review: We are moving into an epoch of "convenience", and in the late 90s, many businesses have moved into the cyber superhighway. The global economy will be metamorphosised because of this fantastic delivery channel. Just think of the growth rate for e-businesses in the next 2 to 5 years. The question we should ask ourselves is "Will I be part of that change and take advantage of the prime situation I'm in right now?" and not wait for the years to pass and then ask ourselves "Where was I a couple of years ago?"

Summary: Utter dross
Review: Written at a sub-adult level, this Get-Rich-Kwik book is a very light read. If you've ever wondered what those direct marketers are on about, have a look at this featherweight tome. The style is very persuasive, as long as you don't look too closely at the facts presented (or absence thereof). Figures for internet up-take and growth are bandied about, with little reference to sources or comparative figures. For example, "People will spend $115 billion over the internet in the US by 2006" (paraphrased). Oh really? Says who? What percentage of total retail sales will that be? What goods or services will be bought and sold in this way. A few references to Bill gates and Henry Ford are supposed to convince us that we can all become millionaires. (He conveniently ignores the fact that Ford's starting capital of $28,000 is worth considerably more in today's terms.) It's light, forgetable, and it reassures me that the direct marketeers (like creationists) are "mostly harmless". Just don't buy anything from them...

Summary: Free enterprise for everybody...with guts and vision!
Review: You know, I feel badly for the people who read this book and don't feel that, finally, they can have a REAL shot at the brass ring! An excellent overview of where we've come from and where we're going! The look at the revolutionary outcomes of combinations of technologies was powerful! So much said in such a small space! WRITE ON, BURKE!
