Abstract

Discusses the potential threat of the WWW to traditional information services. Client-server and/or networks have eliminated the need for centralized mainframe data centres. At the same time the proprietary nature of traditional information services becomes problematic for Internet based users. Some of the traditional services maintain Web sites, but the content available through these sites is limited. Considers the quality of Web based data. Some industry leaders expect the Web to fail. However, much of the Web content is unique and reliable. The traditional online industry should learn to play by new rules
