[ NNSquad ] Internet Content is King -- Or Not


Greetings.  Apropos the discussion of "content wars" in both the
wireless and non-wireless Internet arenas, it could be useful at this
juncture to review Andrew M. Odlyzko's 2001 paper "Content is Not
King":

Whether or not one agrees with his premise in the context of 2009, it's
an important and very useful read, especially in terms of providing
historical context.

Andrew was head of the Mathematics and Cryptography Research
Departments at AT&T Labs when he wrote this essay.
