Tech Nation - What Happens Next?
(DIR) Back to Yesterday's Tomorrow Index
06/15/1994 - What Happens Next?
Dr. Moira Gunn speaks with Paul Saffo, research fellow at the
Institute for the Future. They look at whether or not Silicon Valley
eats its young, and discuss the true time it takes for technologies to
catch on. Of major interest is the upcoming information glut, the
power of the individual, and the most significant changes we can
expect in the next five to 10 years.
Dr. Gunn also speaks with Mary Cronin, university librarian at Boston
College. Her new book, "Doing Business on the Internet," examines how
businesses have begun to use the Internet for commercial
communications. This international network, which was developed for
government and research purposes, is now serving the international
business community, and companies of all kinds -- from single-person
entrepreneurs to giant corporations -- will benefit from using it.
