Silly Wabbit<\/h2>\n

Stupid buzzword alert: Enterprise Application Integration vendor SilverStream announced they\u2019d purchase the wireless software division of European company Waptop Holding A\/S.<\/strong> Waptop.<\/strong> Oh, let\u2019s all hope this buzzword doesn\u2019t catch on.<\/strong> I was so glad when the ugly Webtop <\/a> buzz died down.<\/strong> I have visions of AOL Time Warner getting a hold of this one and peppering us with commercials featuring Elmer Fudd and his wascally waptop.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wireless Portals Keys to Access<\/h2>\n

In a free research report, Summit Strategies outlines some of the reasons why wireless portals will be even more important than the regular Web portals:<\/p>\n

Portals will be more important for both consumer and business wireless users because it is so difficult to navigate the Web on small wireless devices.<\/strong> Business portals will yield particular value if they can provide fast, easy, personalized access to content and functionality aggregated from multiple sources, through a single user interface, with single sign-on and with simple authentication and security.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Summit asserts that the real power of wireless will be unleashed by what they call wireless workplaces.<\/strong> They predict these virtual workplaces will provide seamless, personalized access to corporate and third-party applications and information, and transparently handle log-on, authentication and security.<\/strong> Summit also predicts a much faster uptake of business use of wireless Web than there was of the regular Web.<\/strong> It\u2019s stunning to realize that the Web has only been seriously used for business for, at most, four or five years.<\/strong> I released by first Web application six years ago last month, and, boy, was it a different world then.<\/strong> Yet businesses are already flocking to wireless platforms to conduct serious business.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s important for businesses to realize that a revolution is brewing in wireless.<\/strong> No matter what business you\u2019re in, wireless devices are going to permanently change the way you do business.<\/strong> When you can conduct all your office business anywhere, anytime, the pressures to deliver quicker will become extreme.<\/strong> Just look at how the cell phone and laptop have accelerated business change in the last few years.<\/strong> Now multiply that many times and you\u2019ve got an idea of what\u2019s to come.<\/strong><\/p>\n

So the big question is: Is there an end point?<\/strong> Is there some point at which people stop and say, \u201cthat\u2019s enough.<\/strong> We can\u2019t move any faster\u201d? As companies go virtual, and employees become free agents, and alliances become more fleeting, will anything stop the accelerating pace of change?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Personally, I feel there\u2019s got to be some maximum point, some point at which people are totally saturated with information, possibilities, and demands on their time.<\/strong> I\u2019ve no idea what that point might be, but I feel it\u2019s going to be different generationally.<\/strong> Generation E (preteens) will have a much different tolerance than Generations X and Y and us aging Boomers.<\/strong> Nonetheless, everyone needs to have a life, don\u2019t they?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Me? When it gets too intense, I\u2019m going to Texas<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n
