Let me tell you something. I've been given a fascinating assignment this
morning. I've been asked to discuss The Power of Magazines - their power
to connect with readers, their power to capitalize on emerging opportunities,
and their power to compete - and cooperate - with other media.

Wangberg, President and CEO of ZDTV, The Power of Mass-Media Computing,
Washington D.C. Cable Club, July 18, 1998
I think you see what I mean when I tell you that computing has entered the
mainstream. The 20th century has seen the rise of three great media technologies:
Radio, Broadcast Televison and Cable Television. Radio broadcasting started
around 1920 (about 15 years after radio was actually invented) and was the
dominant media technology for the next 30 years or so. Television started
to take over around 1950 (at least 20 years after it was invented) and is
still going strong, although there have been some significant developments
along the way, such as the audience shift from broadcast to cable.

Let me begin by making this
interactive. Imagine we were to remake the movie Star Wars. Raise your hand
if you believe that Bill Gates should be cast as Luke Skywalker. Now, raise
your hand if you believe that he should be cast as Darth Vader.

Wangberg, President and CEO, ZD Television, PTO Luncheon Address, Burlingame,
CA, December 9, 1997
At Ziff-Davis, we believe in technology and we believe in it passionately.
We believe in the social and business benefits that come with new technology.
We believe in technology so passionately that it has changed who we are and
what we do as a company. The Ziff-Davis publishing company was founded in
1927 and we have been publishing magazines ever since.

Raskin, Editor-in-Chief and Publisher, FamilyPC to the Kids Online Summit,
Washington, D.C., December 2, 1997
I am delighted to be here today to commend us all on the jobs that we have
been doing individually and collectively to help make certain that children
can enjoy the benefits of the Internet while being sheltered from its dangers.

Everything starts with a belief. Columbus would never have set sail. Louis
Pasteur would never have continued his search for a cure. Martin Luther King
would never have dedicated his life to civil rights. None of them would have
done the things they did if they didn't believe in something passionately.
Dan
Rosensweig, President, ZDNet, Jupiter Keynote Speech, San Francisco's Grand
Hyatt Hotel, September 17, 1997
I'm sure that all of us would
agree that users are pretty important to the success of anything and Push
is no different. In fact, until we align Push products with real user needs,
push won't take off.
