| Abstract: | Remember all that talk a few years ago about the Information Superhighway? Offices and homes across the country were supposed to be transformed by powerful new communications technologies that would deliver two-way video, online games, home shopping, even the choice of working from the beaches or the ski slopes - all conducted via snazzy new digital devices. Instead, after a few limited experiments, the telephone and entertainment companies decided that these high-tech roadways were just too expensive to build - and a hard sell to their cost-conscious consumers. |
