- What is the world wide webAn internet – a collection of interconnected networksA web – a collection of interconnected websitesA social network – a collection of interconnected peopleKey properties Universal broadcast – for free Free frictionless group forming Infinitely low cost micro groupsA signal amplifier depends on a good signal if your bad in real life its hard to be good on the web We “leak” our true livesInfinite Memory Nothing goes away The end of the “news cycle” multi-channel madness – facebook, twitter, youtube, blogs The compression of information from .doc to blog to SMS to tweetsWhat does this mean? Harnessing the web is like harnessing the sea You are a splinter on the OceanRies and Trout “The most over-communicated society ever, (and that was before the web)” You’re competing for attention with X-Factor and Britney Spears and Warren Buffett and Barack ObamaThe Good News Everyone needs accountants – Phew! Businesses collapse for a variety of reasons but cause of death is always the same – They run out of cash A man who finds accountancy boring is not fit to run a shoeshine standSo What should I do? Its not about the tools – Great clubs do not make a great golfer
- You are a splinter on the oceanWarren doesn’t even have an email addressPositioning first published in 1980
- High signal to noise ratioWatching somebody meltdown on the Internet is a high traffic eventHardest thing to sell on the Internet is Viagra
- The end of distribution as a monopolyThe beginning of attention as a monopolyThe means of production are actually now in the hands of the proletariat I can contribute minutes of my time and in aggregate we get wikipedia.

- Pick 10 from 1. Now pick 1.B2B vs B2C
