This discussion involves you understanding the e-business sector as a component of the information technology revolution currently under way. As usual, we've identified some salient sources that will be of help to you in forming this understanding. The question at hand is basically where all this is going, and what the effects are likely to be. Of course, figuring out that things are likely to change and figuring out exactly how to monetize some small piece of that change process for your own benefit are rather different things. Let's start with the simpler aspect; based on where you see the world of e-commerce today as part of the overall information technology management domain, where's the potential for future development? Certainly it would be silly to presume that within the last 5 to 10 years we've managed to figure out everything possible to do in the economic domain with electronic interaction. So we know there will be change; the question is what, where, and with what effects.
