Advertising & the Internet Archive


This column is for decision-makers in the advertising industry who are concerned with the implications of new digital technologies. While the main focus is on the Internet, the goal is to help advertisers survive and prosper in the digital revolution currently underway.

Ideas for these columns came from many places, but special thanks are given to Leland Wallace, a senior engineer on Apple's server team, Alan Brunner, Co-founder of Jasmine Technologies, and Robin Hedges (aka Robin Sterling), former senior quality assurance manager at Apple, Adobe, Radius, and eBay.
