Thank you Chinmoy...my sentiments exactly! NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SEPT. 17, 1999-- The Most Influential People in Electronic Business The inaugural Business Week e.biz 25 celebrates Internet innovators who are doing the most to spark a transformation of society that is as profound as the Industrial Revolution. From such bona fide captains of industry as Yahoo!'s Timothy Koogle to relatively unknowns such as Glen Meakem, founder of FreeMarkets Inc., they represent a wholesale redistribution of tech leadership. Business Week's e.biz 25 are profiled in the cover story of the magazine's Sept. 27 issue, to be published Friday. As a sign of how much things have changed, the daredevil of the PC generation is not on Business Week's list: William H. Gates III. It wasn't so long ago that the honcho of Microsoft Corp. seemed to have the computer industry in a brainlock. But now, we're seeing the wholesale redistribution of leadership in the technology industry. Like the Web itself, the Internet industry has no center of gravity. Now, someone at Noname.com is just as likely to create the next great business as is someone at Microsoft. "This is the PC business times 1,000," Business Week says. "That's because these 25 larger-than-life characters, and thousands more who are aspiring to be just like them, are determined to overthrow the old world order." The 1999 Business Week e.biz 25 are: Empire Builders Jeffrey P. Bezos , CEO, Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) Stephen M. Case, Chairman and CEO, America Online Inc. (NYSE: AOL) Timothy A. Koogle, Chairman and CEO, Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ: YHOO) Regards, Mason
