Internet: Start the second revolution
The Internet era is shifting new trends in society and posing great challenges for traditional industries.
Google, which specializes in online search, recently proposed setting up a free Wi-Fi system for the entire US city of San Francisco, the center of Silicon Valley's leading Internet revolution. .
Looking through the online business field, eBay surprised the business community when it decided to buy the entire Skype phone service. Computer Apple unveiled the tiny, nano iPod in the shirt pocket.
The British Broadcasting Corporation ( BBC ) announced it would begin broadcasting live television programs. And so, we can see the Internet is entering the second revolution.
Not quite the same as the dot-com boom in the late 1990s, with the dot-com stock market slipping dramatically, this second revolution, according to many experts, will shake. industries from release to telecommunications with good news: consumers will always benefit directly from this second revolution.
According to Brooks Gray, general manager of Technology Business Research (USA), this revolution also poses great challenges for companies if they do not keep up.
Those challenges are:
* Prices and sizes will be significantly reduced. Look at mobile data ' flash memory ' drives, nano iPods, mobile phones, and soon to be mobile phones that can watch television.
* Information in the direction of digitization. The difference between personal computers, mobile phones, TVs, books and newspapers will become increasingly narrow. And then there will be the ' digitized merger ' that consumers are using today: mobile phones and cameras, flash-cum-radio drives, wrist watches and flash drives .
* Extended mobility. Business, work, study will apply this mobility at a wide level.
* The profit level decreases. When information is digitized, profit margins can be tightened. The Internet can grow, but that doesn't mean companies will make more profits.
* Traditional industries are shaken. In the telecommunications industry, for example, US companies and consumers are rushing to register for Vonage's phone service at a cost of only 1/100 compared to traditional phones.
Even Rupert Murdoch, general manager of News Corp, said: " I believe that free phones online will be everywhere, not in 10 years, but only 2-3 years. . '
And Google seems to be a rival to Microsoft, according to Joe Wilcox, a leading analyst at Jupiter Research, a US research firm. Google's ambition is to turn the Internet into a giant computer that desktop computers are just a way to get into the web.
Do we remember Betamax and VHS tapes? Today, people are rushing to buy iPod nano at a price of $ 299. Cool!
