The Way of the Infonaut: Micro companies need mega corporations

The Way of the Infonaut. Filtering out the big trends in society, business and culture in our brave new world. Tuesday, 12 May 2009. Micro companies need mega corporations. My previous post highlighted the rise of the micro company - this post will look at the flip side of this trend - the consolidation of power in mega corporations.

The Way of the Infonaut. Filtering out the big trends in society, business and culture in our brave new world. Sunday, 29 March 2009. There's been a brief hiatus where I've been very busy at work.
