InformationWeek > The Role Of IT > Tapscott Emphasizes 'Business Webs,' The Value Of IT, And Innovation > September 20, 2004 "Don Tapscott, co-author of The Naked Corporation and president of New Paradigm Learning Corp., took the stage Tuesday morning at InformationWeek's Fall Conference in Rancho Mirage, Calif., and spread the message about "business webs," which he described as a key way to gain business advantages.
Business webs come in a number of forms, from open markets like eBay, to aggregates or exchanges such as the B-to-B auto-industry exchange Covisint, to tightly organized value chains of manufacturers and outsourcers, to self-organizing alliances, like the network of kids and adults building and sharing Lego Mindstorms robotics apps. What they have in common is what matters: Their ability to use IT to create killer businesses."

Hey, it's 1999 again!
