E-Commerce and Retail

by Paul Harmon

There was a good article by Bob Tedeschi in the New York Times (" Retail Battle Returns to the Bricks," http://www.nytimes.com/2000/11/20/technology/20ECOMMERCE.html) that discussed how retailers were sleeping more easily these days, now that they no longer worry about being "Amazoned." It's just one of a couple of dozen articles I've been reading as I try to decide where the e-commerce marketplace is going. Some articles, like this one, have a couple of quotes and several examples; others review efforts at major companies, like a recent article that followed the twists and turns of the major auto companies that were trying to convert themselves into e-businesses. Still others rely on data that is always less comprehensive than one would like.
