Internet TV: Just A Logical Evolution?

As stated previously in these pages, video on the Internet is here to stay.

But the impact of IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) on the marketing and delivery of business services is just now beginning to be realized. So every entrepreneur needs to be thinking right now about how it could benefit - or harm - their firm.

Internet pioneer Robert Metcalfe (the inventor of Ethernet) says that video on the Internet is not a revolution, but rather just the logical next step in an evolution that started with information being presented in black type in ALL CAPS, moving to upper- and lower-case with red accents, then to a graphical interface with hyperlinks, on to high-quality photographs and sound, and finally to voice communication (VOIP) and now video.

While this 5:51 video clip starts out a little rocky - and I could do without the background noise - there are a couple of nuggets in here that make it worth watching. Post a comment to let me know what you think.
