Amazon’s WebServices
Tim O’Reilly has an interesting story how he tried (and succeeded?) to sell WebServices to Amazon. I like the arguments he gives for businesses to open up. Especially the platform argument: change your application into a platform and more parties will become dependent on you. The Amazon webservices page has many examples.
I do not like how he uses the words application and platform though.
