writes "David Stutz has written elegant piece over at OSDir.com
titled 'Some Implications
of Software Commoditization'. It explores the concept of
commodification in a historical context while also seeking to discover
lessons that might be applied to contemporary open source business
efforts. David gets extra points in my books for including sugar,
Shakespeare, open source, MP3s, and the British Empire in one
article."
This sounds like something I was just talking about today -
what do you do when key software infratructure, apps and servcies -
all become commodities?
I think I have an answer - do you? Everyone
better.
BTW This article is currently SlashDotted -but hopefully
it'll become accessible - later.
