The “O” factor in Online
Posted: July 28th, 2007 | Author: dotblack | Filed under: Business, Personal | Comments OffThe “e” era has long gone away, the era where every tom, dick, and harry came up with an electronic solution. The “e” became a suffix to every company that opened to do IT and come up with solutions. But only one name made it out of the “e” mirage, yup, the “e-mail”. Now the “O” factor or better yet put the “Online” era, well, that’s so old to talk about, but the x-point-”O” ,even that’s so old to talk about, but apparently in the M.E and specially in the UAE where we reside, the x-point-o’h and the family is yet to grow.
Using & Abusing the Uninformed
Remember the Over the hype post when I busted an outdated and a misleading article by ACN? It was back then when we fought over the acronyms and semantics. A year after that, we’re actually taking another step behind where actual/formal business announcements include the same scenario.
Well, I promised not to point fingers, so won’t go further on this, but as I said before, “Buzzwords and Acronyms won’t lead the Online industry anywhere but to the Dictionary“!
