An interesting statistic and forecast I got out of Internet Week: There are calculated to be 45,000 e-merchants on the net in 1999. By 2003, that number is expected to grow to 4,900,000! The "early adopters" of the Internet, particularly EBay and Amazon, have existed in a relative vacuum of competition as most firms sat back and watched or failed to gear up. That will change dramatically. Who are the next flurry of companies that will benefit from this tide? I have my sights set on a few companies that are about to do IPOs or are already public but ignored - some software companis that will supply the "bricks and mortor" of e-commerce, some new e-commerce plays and a few that will benefit as a by-product of Internet growth. Any ideas on the next Amazon or Ebay?
