Lightweight Business Models
Lightweight Business Models
09/22/2004 11:17 PMThe 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....
Over 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!

01/25/2004 06:22 PMThe 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,

New Business Models For The Music
Industry?
New Business Models For The Music
Industry?
09/15/2004 04:23 AMNPR 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 PMBecause 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.

06/23/2004 03:08 AMIt’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. Learn
