Does Information Technology Matter anymore?
I've been reading Nicholas Carr's "Does IT Matter? Information Technology and the Corrosion of Competitive Advantage" and although I don't not completely agree with Mr. Carr's view, he definitely gives pause to businesses that just buy technology with no thought in how to use it beyond "business as usual".
There's so much technology available, but the key is how can I use this technology as a competitive asset in my business.
I'll be reviewing his book and these issues in depth later on. I'm about 3/4 of the way through the book.

Nicholas Carr's book lacks one thing - the SOLUTION. How can businesses use technology to compete - or CAN they?
