Abstract: | At age 37, Steven M. Case is already a folk hero in Corporate America. The boyish entrepreneur is the force behind America Online Inc., the world's most successful online service. With 5 million customers and 75,000 more joining each week, AOL has turned a computer network into a new medium for entertainment and news. In just three years, it whizzed past rival CompuServe Inc. in th U.S. and outmaneuvered competitors as mighty as Microsoft Corp. While many experts have predicted his success couldn't last, Case's America Online just keeps growing. |
