Summary
Confusion over terminology is only one of the symptoms of change. Other major concerns about publishing and its future continued to appear, including the effects of the proliferation and mass usage of the new technologies, the changing user habits these new communication forms engender, new and unknown industry competitors, and intensified merger and acquisition activity. These and other powerful effects spell great change, and although no one has a crystal ball (at least one that works) I wanted to know as best as I could what publishing would look like as we enter the next millennium, now less than a decade away.
