Internet Collapses and Other InfoWorld Punditry
Description:
"What to make of this ranting gasbag named Metcalfe? Turn up the filters, tune in, and listen. You may not like the way he phrases it, but he's actually got some very important things to say and he isn't afraid to say them." ? Vint Cerf Bob Metcalfe is the Internet's resident gadfly and reigning pundit ? a renowned inventor (Ethernet) and entrepreneur (3Com) whose weekly InfoWorld columns skewer pretensions, assault the conventional wisdom, and spit roast sacred cows. This book collects the best of Metcalfe's polemics, predictions, and pronouncements over the last decade ? and pairs them with no-holds-barred rebuttals and commentary by industry heavyweights. The result is vintage Metcalfe: provocative, inflammatory, and insightful. Just a few of Bob Metcalfe's pronouncements over the years...
