Chris Anderson’s blog the editor of by far the most mainstream geeky magazine Wired. Here, Chris blogs about the concept of the Long Tail which as he puts it:
“The theory of the Long Tail is that our culture and economy is increasingly shifting away from a focus on a relatively small number of “hits” (mainstream products and markets) at the head of the demand curve and toward a huge number of niches in the tail. As the costs of production and distribution fall, especially online, there is now less need to lump products and consumers into one-size-fits-all containers. In an era without the constraints of physical shelf space and other bottlenecks of distribution, narrowly-targeted goods and services can be as economically attractive as mainstream fare.”
The blog gives practical examples of tech entrepreneurs exploiting this idea as well as other tech entreprenurship news and business models.
