Want me to unpack that a bit?

The Web lets us:

• Start businesses
• Cultivate customers and relationships
• Figure out our finances
• Bill people who owe us loot
• Manage projects
• Collaborate easily
• Find employees or partners
• Tell people about your business skills
• Learn about new things
• Report and communicate
• Buy things
• Sell things
• List things
• Watch things
• (enough with the things already)

You CAN do things a lot more streamlined than before. You don’t need an IT team. You need a nerd. You don’t need millions of dollars. You need day jobs. You don’t need a million customers. You need the right 10,000.

How are you using today’s Web? Are you taking advantage of the fact that YOU are driving? How much has this changed the way you work from five years ago?
