>>I use an on-line personal notifier called NewsAlert and I noticed it's powered by Dealtime.com so I checked it out. I'm not trying to hype either but I think it clearly demonstrates how big e-commerce is already but even more is an indicator of how far we still have to go.<< I recall watching the President of this company when he was interviewed by CNBC about a month ago. IMO they will need one mother of a search engine to be looking for deals across all sites for weeks on end for a growing number of people. I guess News Alert does it, so why can't they. I don't recall how they plan to generate their revenue? Maybe they will do it through subscriber fees and advertising? Right now they mention searching the Internet, I also wonder if, and how, they will be able to monitor the prices when Bid.Com goes to the T.V.. It is a neat model. You are right, the next five to ten years is going to be really amazing. To rip off a quote from someone else, "The only constant will be change".
