You can also interact with the author: at various points in the book you are invited to send an e-mail to the author and the replies will often add some recent additional material.

Project 2000

To quote the Project 2000 web site:

Project 2000 is a five-year [from 1994] sponsored research effort devoted to the scholarly and rigorous investigation of the marketing implications of commercialising hypermedia computer-mediated environments (CMEs) like the World Wide Web and other emerging electronic environments. Project 2000 research objectives are to enrich and stimulate the knowledge base on the role of marketing in new media environments, provide a principal point for the discussion and exchange of these ideas, and impact business practice in this emerging area.

Project 2000 is based at the Owen Graduate School of Management, Vanderbilt University. It is headed by Professor Donna Hoffman who has been named as one of the Top 25 Women on the Web by the San Francisco Webgrrls for her achievements in technology and the Internet.

This is an academic site with much of the material being detailed, rigorous and updated spasmodically. Nether-the-less there are readable papers to be found, for instance, about exploring new business models and paradigms. In the future it is hoped to summarise and link to such articles.Here's one:

Hoffman, D.L. and Novak, T.P. (1996), "A New Marketing Paradigm for Electronic Commerce," The Information Society, Special Issue on Electronic Commerce, 13 (Jan-Mar.), 43-54.

This paper argues "that in order for marketing efforts to be successful in this new medium, a new business paradigm is required in which the marketing function is reconstructed to facilitate electronic commerce in the emerging electronic society underlying the Web.".

It highlights the multi-spectrum nature of the Internet: users have a range of uses, competencies, goals; and the shift of promotion from one-to-many to many-to-many. The paper looks a information models where consumers sell their personal profiles; at the rise of ISPs who are becoming gatekeepers, gathering and presenting information in easy to find, attractively display, and checked for safe content, packages.

Once the issues of security and financial payments has been addressed the Internet will make markets extremely efficient for both consumers and suppliers.In such an environment it suggests a collaborative approach between the parties working together on a one to one basis to define needs and products - i.e. an environment where consumers become active participants in the marketing process.
