This issue
Trade shows are nearly all alike. Having attended two within a two-week period,
I sometimes can't keep the events straight---did I see VRML demonstrated
in San Jose or Atlanta? Despite their surface blandness, however, trade shows
sometimes announce the leading edge of technologies that are soon to be
in consumer hands. In the online world, technologies as well as many
other aspects of human communication through networks, are changing
rapidly. In this issue, we look in detail at the
recent, Internet World conference. I also give
a brief report on the Comdex trade show held
in Atlanta recently.
This issue
also continues other themes in which
we are interested. Kevin Hunt critiques
MCI's Gramercy Press web, a site that many
presenters at Internet World and Comdex discussed in several ways--some
praised its innovation; others critiqued its "hollowness."
A New Look

Please let Jason (teaguj@rpi.edu) know what you think.
