I've spent a ton of time over the last few days researching emerging technologies and their impact on the future of e-business. Honestly, there is a ton of stuff going on but it was difficult for me to dig through some of the articles I was reading to find technology that would really make an impact on how business is done.
The area I ended up spending a lot of time learning about was wireless technology. I was very unfamiliar with WiMAX before I started, but I feel like I have a pretty good handle on it right now and the possibilities that it provides seem endless. I really think that it will change a lot of the things we do in the business world and will greatly increase the speed of communication that we will have available to us! I guess I just have to hope that the specs are right and that it will deliver as promised.
After my research, I modified some articles on the BYU E-Business Wiki. The pages I modified are as follows:
I also plan on doing a broader treatment of WiMAX on the WiMAX page, but I will need to do a bit more research before I can do that. I would also like to do some more research on the future of internet security, which I started delving into before I became super busy with other things today.
This is my first experience with a Wiki as well, so I was pretty proud of myself for being able to figure out the formatting quickly. I really enjoyed myself... I enjoy researching technologies and envisioning what they can do for us in the future, so I'm sure I will continue contributing to the E-Business wiki for a while.

I agree that wireless technologies like WiMAX are going to make a huge impact on how businesses opperate as well as on our personal lifestyles. I find it interesting that people in Asia and Europe seem to be a little ahead of America on this.
I'm also really glad that you are going to keep contributing to the wiki in the future. I think you have a lot to share.
