The Interpreneur and CyberBusiness

Where would the Internet be today if the whole enterprise wasn't based on open source code? (dcb: ancient history. It's not in Wikipedia, which begs the question "if it's not in Wiki, does it exist?")

Where would the Internet be today if html was private intellectual property like DOS and MicroSoft?

Where would personal computer application software be today without the contributions of geeks like Bob Wallace, Jim "Button" Knopf and Andrew Fluegelman. considered the "fathers" of the 1980's shareware freeware marketing model?

Where would e-commerce be today without freeware ZenCart?

Where would big newspapers and corporate sites be today without shareware content management systems people like Exponent and Drupal?

Where would blogging be without Interpreneurs offering a great service for a tiny price like SquareSpace

Time magazine named us collectively "Person of the Year" for a reason. As Interpreneurs, we are forcing a new way to create and conduct business, from the bottom up.

David and Goliath redux.
