Internet protocols provide any information anywhere. That is the power of the Internet to make a real impact on how we live our lives. The Bottom Line I guess there are some who primarily value the Internet for its commercial potential. Call me an optimist, but I'd like to believe that true value lies in what we can produce, not what we can consume. It is our intellectual products that distinguish us as a species.
Technology is a product of intellect.
Now, technology supports intellect. So, you can say I'm not all that excited about being able to buy stuff on the Internet. I get much more excited about arcane topics such as an Internet dictionary protocol. Still, if you are one of those excited about Internet commerce, you will want to investigate my latest product idea, which will make an excellent gift. Coming to a Web site near you, it's an Internet bread slicer.
