The questions have given me food for thought, particularly regarding the future - and future popularity - of Boolean logic. <small>[<a href="http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page01.html">Read entire topic</a>]</small> Fri, 30 Jun 2000 16:21:00 PDT #79: Reva Basch (reva) Fri 30 Jun 00 13:01 http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page04.html#post79 Alan, yes; the CD includes links to all the sites mentioned in the book, plus some additional ones.<br /><br />Castle and crew, thanks for the opportunity to plug Researching Online For Dummies, 2nd edition. <small>[<a href="http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page01.html">Read entire topic</a>]</small> Fri, 30 Jun 2000 13:01:00 PDT #78: Linda Castellani (castle) Fri 30 Jun 00 11:49 http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page04.html#post78 I can't believe it's been two weeks already! And you've just barely scratched the surface. I thank you all for such a great interview, and please, by all means, continue as long as you like. <small>[<a href="http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page01.html">Read entire topic</a>]</small> Fri, 30 Jun 2000 11:49:00 PDT #77: Rafe Colburn (rafeco) Fri 30 Jun 00 06:08 http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page04.html#post77 I don't see how that's workable for lots of sites, though. What if your site is both your business and your brand? For example, apbnews.com just went out of business despite the fact that they might have been doing the best crime reporting in any medium. Part of the problem was that they blew a ton of cash on advertising, and probably had too many people working for them, but the bottom line is that they couldn't earn enough revenue to keep their business going.<br /><br /> I'd like for there to be a niche for Web publishers who are larger than the independent publisher who builds a site as a hobby, and aren't big media outlets like newspapers or broadcast networks. Clearly sites like apbnews.com, Salon, and plenty of others provide valuable content. How do we keep them around? <small>[<a href="http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page01.html">Read entire topic</a>]</small> Fri, 30 Jun 2000 06:08:00 PDT #76: Mary Ellen Bates (mebs) Fri 30 Jun 00 06:04 http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page04.html#post76 I've been doing work at a client's site the last two days and have been... offline! <br /><br />To respond to a couple of great queries:<br /><br />Like Reva, I subscribe to AIIP-L, and I also continue to read several of the business librarians' lists. There's a lot of peripheral stuff there, but at least once a week or so, I learn something new, or am reminded of some great resource. <br /><br />As for the online landscape WRT free or micropayment. I tend to agree with Reva that the advertiser-supported model won't last for 5 years, at leasta not in its current form. B2C ecommerce has been a great boon to the info industry, as it accustoms people to paying for stuff on the Web, trusting their credit card to the ether, etc. However, I'm still not convinced that people are any more willing now to pay small amounts for information than they have ever been. <br /><br />I tend to think that the trend is toward the CNN.com model. Give away content for free to drive the brand. <small>[<a href="http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page01.html">Read entire topic</a>]</small> Fri, 30 Jun 2000 06:04:00 PDT #75: Rafe Colburn (rafeco) Fri 30 Jun 00 05:26 http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page03.html#post75 I just registered for Paypal myself, but basically you just sign up and enger your credit card number, and at that point you can email money to people really easily. Or, you can send payments to sites that accept Paypal, I think. <small>[<a href="http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page01.html">Read entire topic</a>]</small> Fri, 30 Jun 2000 05:26:00 PDT #74: better run thru the jungle (sd) Thu 29 Jun 00 22:25 http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page03.html#post74 I think that the CD ROM is fairly slick. I like the color scheme which follows the dummies marketing plan. Are all of the links in the book on there? It looked about right.<br /><br />I've decided that the local mailing list will start off being very local for my square mile subdivision. I'm planning to kick it off with a website that includes a mailing list signup and then a non-virtual sign at the only exit from our little cul-de-sac village. Details will follow. <small>[<a href="http://www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/77/Reva-Basch-and-Mary-Ellen-Bates-page01.html">Read entire topic</a>]</small> Thu, 29 Jun 2000 22:25:00 PDT
