Internet Sales Are Growing

from the in-case-you-missed-the-revolution dept

In case you thought that the usefulness of the internet and online shopping went away with the end of the dot com boom, it appears you are sadly mistaken. The latest studies show that e-commerce in many different categories is growing rapidly. The article linked here tries to determine who the "leading" player in many different e-commerce areas will be, but I wouldn't put too much weight into their analysis, as it seems that many of these areas are still very much up for grabs. Meanwhile, over at the Wall Street Journal, someone has noticed that, despite the spectacular failure of Webvan, food sales online seem to be catching on, and even Amazon is expected to get into the business shortly. Once again, like so many things on the internet, the real results may be even bigger than was originally predicted... it just happens much slower.
