I hope Apple recalls and buries all copies of "The Web. Sink
or Swim." WebOBjects brochure :-)
Another client pointed Friday that now Sharper Image, I
think the very first big name WO site and profiled in that
brochure, is no longer using WO.
I just checked their site and here's a sample URL:
<http://www.sharperimage.com/ProductDisplay.jsp?name=GE754&i
ndex=OnSale>
Current issue of InfoWorld has a quick site profile of
Sharper Image, too, which doesn't list WO:
Site profile: www.sharperimage.com
Company: Sharper Image Corp., San Francisco
Business: Online sales of specialty products; online
auctions
Tools used: Sun Enterprise workgroup server hardware on Sun
Solaris; Apache Web server software running on Unix;
Evergreen Internet's Ecential, a Java-based commerce
transaction engine that includes product-tracking and

Merchant Mail e-mail newsletter service.

What's up with Sharper Image & WO?
