Where do you want to go today?® isn’t a figurative question. The Expedia™ travel service and its licensed offspring at American Express, Northwest Airlines and Continental Airlines are already booking an average of 10,000 seats a week for business and personal travel, making Expedia one of the top electronic commerce applications on the Internet.
It’s flexible enough to be configured to the individual travel policies of any company. It saves time, money and headaches. The Sidewalk™ city guide is helping people find the dining, arts, entertainment and recreation experiences they want in New York, Seattle, Boston, the Twin Cities and more cities soon. MSNBC transforms the familiar into something really new.
By combining the world-class technology of Microsoft with the world-leading news resources of NBC, MSNBC is attracting more than two million users each month. All of this and more is available over MSN™, The Microsoft Network, right now. In an era of rapid change, online services and entertainment have the potential to set the pace. We’ll keep learning about what the technology offers, what people want in both form and content and using what we know.
And we already know that the only thing that will truly bring the power of the Internet to consumers is the combination of unique content and a fast, easy-to-use delivery system, like TV sets. With our investments in WebTV and Comcast we are acting on a commitment to radically improve the delivery of Internet-based content. It’s not about trying to change the nature of our business, it’s about extending its reach.
