• Maybe not, because the Brick and Mortar
stores are integrating Bricks and Clicks very
well( Walmart.com, Macy’s.com).

buy have to be touched and felt.

brick stores. E.g. Amazon.com, gateway.com
• Brick followed by Click: existing brick and mortar companies
going online. E.g. Wal-Mart and walmart.com
• Brick and Mortar Only: only physical stores and no
online sales: E.g. some custom shops like REI.
• Brick followed by Click Only: a brick and mortar store followed
up with an internet site and then, the the brick store abandoned.

with each other through their PC’s.
• Cellular Browsing: e-mailing through cellular phones is already
very popular. Will it replace the PC in the future?

But Beware:
• IT cannot create a single drop of water or a grain of

• IT can be a dangerous weapon if misused.
• The “highest human needs” may not be satisfied by
IT.
• There is potential withering of human intellect through
information overload.
