    Yeah, 'saw that video earlier.

    It's amazing how newsrooms, not the ad sales department, led the charge about newspapers online. This report makes that obvious. I guess there wasn't any incentive for visionary activities in newspaper advertising sales. 😉

    If you want to read about one early online service that was visionary, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StarText

    I was proud to be a part of that team for more than five years beginning in January 1984.
