I don't see it... It's nice. It's well designed. It's simple. But is it really interesting...longer term...after the novelty wears off...?
This reminds me of the old dot com daze where everyone was getting into everything...
Perhaps the Internet needs to rest for a while...and let things settle out... What works. What doesn't.
It's also quite possible that the Internet has "maxed out" ....those areas that are improved by the Internet are already in place.
And those areas that are never going to be able to use the net well... perhaps never will?
Remember we still aren't buying dog food over the Internet...maybe there's a reason for that...?
