On September 18 and 19, 2008, in a Galaxy Not So Very Far Away....
Platform Wars
Great platforms build empires. Microsoft was able to create and control an enormous market for nearly two decades through its Windows operating system. Google has become the platform for the world of search marketing. Now, in countless Web sectors, the race is on to provide the next great platform on which consumer applications are built. Everyone from Google and Microsoft, to Facebook, Apple and Verizon, is entering the Platform Wars, and the stakes are high. Can the search and desktop monopolies be repeated in the mobile, social, advertising, computing services and other sectors? What are the stakes, who are the players? What are the different approaches? How will the "Platform Wars" shake out?
