Impacts and Revenues Models from Brazilian Portals

Abstract

Tapscott (1996) states that, since the end of the last millennium, the world is witnessing the birth of a new era called the age of networked intelligence, which creates a new economy, new policy and a new society, based on networking of human intelligence through technology. In other words, in this new era, machines do not predominate, but individuals who use networks to combine their intelligence, their knowledge and their creativity to create wealth and social development.
