Lightweight Business Models


Lightweight Business Models 09/22/2004 11:17 PM

The workshop that Jason Fried and myself will be giving at Web 2.0 is entitled "Lightweight Business Models". I'm liking that title more and more as we approach the event.

What will be interesting to see - will be all the Web 1.0 folks meeting all the Web 2.0 folks. Lots of announcements, schmoozing, networking and (hopefully) kai-seki.

I have these vivid memories of the Nikko - doing kai-seki for hours with various Japanese emissaries in the late 80's - when money was no object.

I don't necessarily see the Web 2.0 as a platform with JUST eBay, Amazon or Google - but it's nice to have them there. But it's also nice to have Technorati, Sxip and Flickr.

:-)

The idea of workshop is that there are all these 'little' programs out there that when connected together (via open standards) can create a decentralized mesh of functionality united around new kinds of micro-content.

Here's John Battelle's post....

web2Over at O'Reilly, Tim's posted his thoughts on why Web 2.0 is a meme with legs, and he's inviting feedback from his readers on what they'd like to see asked of all the speakers we have coming to converse. I'd like to do the same - you guys have always kept me honest, and the conference is really shaping up to be something else again. As Tim puts it:

I'm talking about the emergence of what I've started to call Web 2.0, the internet as platform. We heard about that idea back in the late 90s, at the height of the browser wars, but that turned out to be a false alarm. But I believe we're now starting the third age of the internet -- the first being the telnet-era command line internet, the second the web -- and the third, well, that tale grows in the telling. It's about the way that open source and the open standards of the web are commoditizing many categories of infrastructure software, driving value instead to the data and business processes layered on top of (or within) that software; it's about the way that web sites like eBay, Amazon, and Google are becoming platforms with rich add-on developer communities; it's about the way that network effects and data, rather than software APIs, are the new tools of customer lock-in; it's about the way that to be successful, software today needs to work above the level of a single device; it's about the way that the Microsofts and Intels of tomorrow are once again going to blindside established players because all the rules of business are changing.

Time and again as I report in this space, I'm struck by how different this time round is from the late 1990s. For example, today I spoke with Jeff Weber, who runs USAToday's digital publishing efforts, and we had a robust conversation about publishing models, new and old. I was part of the first wave of "new media" in the 90s, and we were convinced that the world was changing, but wrong in the timing and execution. Now, a whole host of "lightweight publishers" have sprung up, and they are challenging and undermining the entire cost structure and business model of old line publishers. This time, it's real. Weber pointed out to me that Yahoo News, which is twice as big as USAToday.com, and has just 11 employees. Then there's craigslist, with more traffic than nearly anyone, and only 20 or so employees. How do they do that? They've got a very Web 2.0, lightweight business model, that's how (and Yahoo aggregates content, then creates interfaces, of course). Over and over, in so many aspects of industry, we see this happening - travel, finance, media, entertainment, retail. It's exciting, and it's fun.

At Web 2.0, we're going to talk about all this, and (this will be the last time, I promise) I'd really like to see you all there. I still have a limited number of discount codes to dole out, first come, first served (jbat at battellemedia dot com). The event is October 5-7, in San Francisco at the Hotel Nikko.

Even if you can't make it, check out the program and let me know what you'd like to see asked of the speakers. I hope to see you there!

Open source presents a large potential competitive advantage for hardware and software vendors, and vendors of complementary or substitute services.

Companies such as IBM, HP, Red Hat, Oracle, and recently, Novell, have invested in, and legitimized the use of Linux for enterprise applications -- including datacenter operations. Attorney/analyst John Koenig offers a listing of open source strategies that can bring great competitive advantages to companies if implemented correctly. Read on at ITMJ ...

01/25/2004 06:22 PM
The launch of Orkut has re-ignited the debates about whether or not there's any money in this whole "social networking" game. More specifically, many folks wonder if a purely social networking company can make money without becoming part of a larger (Google, AOL, Yahoo, Microsoft, eBay) company. I'm of two minds on this issue. First, this social networking craze is really just the beginning. The services we see today are too numerous and require far too much of our time,...

New Business Models For The Music
Industry?


New Business Models For The Music
Industry?
09/15/2004 04:23 AM
NPR is running a three-part series looking at potential new business models for the music industry in the face of the ongoing changes brought about by digital technologies for the creation and distribution of music. The three business models are all interesting, and some are already being tried, but it seems unlikely that any will get all that far. The first goes back to times past and looks at the idea of "patronage." The idea is to get a wealthy individual (or, more likely, company) to pay for musical output. The NPR piece suggests that this could be modified as a way for hardcore fans to repay a band, but another interesting concept could be corporate sponsorship. The second idea is bringing back the always popular, but often discr edited, idea of micropayments. Without rehashing all the old arguments, micropayments only work in some very specific circumstances, and do more to shrink a musicians potential market than to grow it. The final idea is some sort of general tax on ISPs, which has strong proponents but raises all sorts of problems concerning why some users are subsidizing others and who gets how much money. Of course, there are other business models that could work today, don't require a huge change in the way things are done, and gives people real value for their money: recognize that the music is a promotional tool for other stuff (professional liner notes, fan clubs, concert tickets, clothing, access to the band, backstage passes, you name it) and suddenly the state of the recording industry doesn't seem so dire.

Anti-Spam Companies Claim Success; Email
Recipients Disagree
08/23/2004 12:04 PM
Because companies fighting the spam battle need to market themselves, many are touting how much success they've had in fighting spam. There's just one problem: most users are seeing more spam. There are ways to reconcile the differences, though. First, there still are a lot of people who don't use any spam filter. So, whether or not the spam filters are succeeding, these people are clearly seeing more spam. Second, even if the spam filters are succeeding in blocking out 95% or 99% or whatever percent they like to claim, there's still some getting through. With spammers increasing the amount of spam they send, the absolute number getting through increases as well. Still, it does make you wonder how we should define "success" in fighting spam.

It’s a myth that the information technology (IT) requirements of emerging and midsize businesses are simpler than those of large enterprises. Virtually every day, we interact with the technology and business leaders of midsize companies whose IT demands not only rival the requirements of much larger companies, but in many cases exceed them.Fortunately, emerging and midsize businesses can resolve the dilemma of updating their outmoded IT infrastructure without massive one-time investments in technology. New technologies, such as Microsoft® .NET, enable companies to leverage previous investments in technology while step-by-step integrating their business systems to enable an efficient, cost-effective, and flexible solution to driving and managing growth.
