The New Deal
The Current World is dying. User view:
– “Tidy site.– It's got a blog…
… and a community
… and endless content.
– It's searchable, and I hate it.”
The New World is a Cooperative Process. User view:– “No one but me in control:
Google to Amazon to Howcast.com. Read reviews, accept Amazon's 30% off, free shipping and returns.
– It's intent-driven, contextual search.– I feel in control, and I love it.”
Networks will matter more to your success than any other initiative.
