Refreshing!

I get sick of all the hype and misrepresentation about the huge shift that has happened with the Internet. So many articles, so little substance. "Your Business Needs the Web" was different. It was well written, well researched, and informative -- a breath of fresh air. I thin k you actually touched on the real issues, challenges, and exciting prospects facing all us poor slobs who have to implement this stuff.
