Lanny/Eric,
I've been involved in electronic commerce (if defined as the use of the
electronic medium for sales/purchase transactions between multiple buyers
and multiple sellers) since the mid 80's. Companies like Reuters, GEIS and I
P Sharp set up electronic markets for niche markets from the late 70's onwards.
If I can help stamp this greed, with information on preceeding uses of
electronic commerce do let me know.
cheers.../bala
