This is the big one, for most of the marbles. Don't be misled: This is not about AOL.com vs. MSN. That's a sideshow. The real battle in the years ahead is going to be over who manages your personal information portfolio — that emerging Web-based application that will manage your billing, entertainment, medical records, calendar, phone book, etc. — and then further integrate that with your business files, investments, and so on. So think of this battle as a personal .NET vs. a supercharged myAOL. Microsoft will try to migrate to this from a gigantic .NET beachhead in the corporate world, the pitch being that as long as all of your professional life is already on .NET, you might as put your personal life there as well. | ||

"The real battle in the years ahead is going to be over who manages your personal information portfolio "

| And you trust a stranger behind a counter at JC Penney's with your credit card number and receipt? What about a person taking your info over the phone? And the company you pay to download a piece of software from the web? How about the student workers and staff who handle your personal information at the university? It's all relative to the angle of yer dangle... |

Remember just a short time ago... when the media made it appear that the winner of the "Apple versus Microsoft" war would basically rule the universe?
and now we laugh at that Remember just a short time ago... when the media made it appear that the winner of the "AOL versus Microsoft" war would basically rule the universe? and now we laugh at that Remember just a short time ago... when the media made it appear that the winner of the "Real Networks versus Microsoft" war would basically rule the universe? and now we laugh at that and now the media tries to tell us that the winner of the ".NET versus J2EE" war or the "Linux versus Windows" war will rule the universe. Well, this time I'm not buying it. The tech rags know SHITE! |
