The passing of Big Monolith and Deep Pocket

I'm convinced that Big Monolith and Deep Pocket have had their day. In all ways, by the looks of it.

Everywhere I look, I see many, small, inexpensive things showing up... From shampoo in one rupee sachets, to Reprints of HBR articles for $5. Mobile phones. Orkut scraps. DVD rentals. pay-as-you-use access to experts.

Big Monolith is elbowed out by perky little things that re-invent themselves fast.
Deep Pocket is under threat by things that cost little and are easy to pay for.

Just Things? Ideas too. Artefacts, Processes, Practices. All of them.

This blog is about my discovery of many, small, inexpensive things.
