MERE BUSINESS MODEL . . .

In the early
years of web-based communication and marketing, the rush to create websites
resulted in a remarkable growth but also a remarkable sameness. Websites
all tended to look, and function, alike perhaps because they were all
based on the same basic template.
However, corporations need strong, distinctive
media images and sameness is a distinct
disadvantage. Happily, now, as we evolve into the "content era," not business models or programming templates. The result
pure and simple is better communication.

| It's
difficult to believe, but prior to 1998, Internet browsers were
relatively primitive tools. It was difficult to know, in those
early years, whether website design would ever become an actual
business or not! |

| Since
then, however, browser enhancements have steadily transformed
the digital landscape in ways that have transformed the use
of type, color, and composition. |
