Review:
The title of this book could refer to new technologies for trading and
transactions. It could refer to the new forms of marketing needed in the
online community, or the marketing of information, or the new demands of
intellectual property, or electronic shopping. In fact, the authors have

adequate introduction to net culture, it does give a fairly good "Just the
facts, ma'am," entree to life online.
Chapter one is basically a lot of figures, regarding Internet size and growth,
