I tend to agree with Douglas Rushkoff & his assertion that e-commerce should be banned. The net as we know it -- to give a fastfood analysis -- is built on the hard work of (in many cases) idealists, programmers contributing to freeware/shareware/etceterate projects that have made B2B, C2C, etc. possible. Although the stories of many of the companies jumping the bandwagon en route to a relatively short-lived e-goldrush have ended @ Chapter 11, extensive damage has been done. All the wrong people (or MANY of the wrong people) ended up becoming dot-com wealthy while tons of programmers, what have you, were left out. In the meantime, we've cheapened a truly amazing thing -- what has become the Internet -- with high-powered PR hype & left the much of the REAL potential of IT along the roadside like so much trash littered about no littering signs! Journalists have often done little to assist, in many cases just rewriting the press releases -- hype, et al.
What's the future of e-commerce? Let us hope there isn't much of one. What do you think?
