I may not be a widely-published media wossname, but I would like to present my scholarly analysis of this. Namely that people finally got bored of a tired and shallow metaphor, and realised that saying it, like prepending everything with "cyber-" was a great way to avoid being taken seriously. This year's language fad is "e-"everything. I hope it goes the same way. Thanks then. -- Andrew Clover Technical Support 1VALUE.com AG
