Buried several paragraphs down in an interesting World Peace Herald analysis of blog influence on the 2004 election is the following prediction by Scott Anthony:
…20 years from now, there will be an entirely new industry based on blogs. Just a few years ago, he noted, when eBay was launched, it was selling novelty items, such as Pez candy dispensers. Today, it is a major retail force that even sells automobiles.
Who’s Scott Anthony, you ask? (I did.) He is the co-author of “Seeing What’s Next” (Harvard Business School Press, 2005), and a partner in Innosight LLC in Watertown, Mass. Let’s hope he does – see what’s next, I mean.
