Great observation Dan! I wish I'd said that. The success of the web technologies when applied to incredibly diverse businesses shows the power of technology -- independent of any particular "business driving". That's not to say that in each particular instance, the business does not need to "do the right thing" with the technology, it simply recognizes that some technologies do indeed have transformative impact across diverse industries. Computing generally is even a better example. -- Nick
