      Welcome to the Google Economy
      Bruce Timmons,
      I like how you said that: "Manufacturers should shift into a view of selling the utility of the stuff rather than the stuff itself."
      When I interviewed VC Fred Wilson for the book and asked him about a Googley car company, he thought for a second and said it was Zipcar. Right: utility over stuff itself.
      I then riffed on that with a new vision for a car company as a getting-you-places company.
      That, indeed, is a network as you describe it.

      Newspapers: Not a Zero-Sum Game - A Minus-Sum Game
      And Sam Zell is having to sell Newsday because he doesn't have the cash to maintain the purchase because his purchases in a recession aren't throwing off that cash. Not pretty.

      I look at it another way: Is there anything that will stop Google, anything standing in its way? I don't see it.

      Customer Omega for the Airlines
      You airline people (I'm so impressed that you can use jargon like "pax") are exhibiting a classic denial of a doomed industry. Thanks for the textbook example. Why should I want to be treated like anything other than shit? Why do I think I deserve not to be screwed by you and your companies. How dare I? The first breath of competition will doom you, especially once protectionism stops coddling you. I fly Silverjet and Eos to London, never standard American airlines. Bye-bye now. Bye-bye.

      Oh, so having a paper ticket is a ticket to hell and a [expletive deleted] from the airline industry. Your protests are the clearest evidence of why this industry is permanently screwed. Screwing your customers is no business model, folks.
      Another airline goes bankrupt today.
      You airline defenders are all flying fast into oblivion. Bye-bye now.
