Ok class, today's word is "disintermediation". - the latest buzzword among electronic-commerce professionals which can be roughly defined as the exclusion of the profit-taking middleman from the sales process. Use it in a sentence: The Web, theoretically, can promote disintermediation by allowing consumers to buy directly from suppliers, without ever leaving home. Tomorrows word: Supercalifragilisticexpealidosious. Gee isn't the world wide web supercalifragilisticexpealidosious!!
