This topic has been getting quite a bit of ink lately. Not familiar w Brian Halligan: Is he co-authoring w the Professor from south Florida?
this is actually a pretty common subject; it all started with a Forbes article when Jer was still alive, I think, and I'm personally acquainted with at least one prominent biz school professor who's talked and written about this a lot.
The recognition that allowing tape trading was excellent marketing is hardly controversial in my book. Marketing, properly done, is just good matchmaking.
ripple 70, trhis was actual news...totday 6:57-7:00am EST
... from the USA nationally syndicated program "All Things Considered" which has a segment in the morning called "Morning Marketplace Report" which has no URL (I think) because as it is overwhelmingly listener funded, you have to be a member to receive the morning pod cast once trhe segment has gone live from 6:50am to 7:00am Mon-Fri.. I could be wrong about that, but in any case this is real and I don't have a way to access it.
Sorry, it is worth a listen just for the sophmorpic masters thesis quality of it (the commentators kind of alluded to the whole thing being quite inane).
