Interview: Samir Arora of NetObjects
“When AOL, the internet service provider, did the deal to place its icon on the desktop of consumer PCs, it bought space on the most desirable billboard in the world. Business boomed.
California-based NetObjects, the provider of e-business services to small-and medium-sized companies (SMEs), has pulled off a coup though this time the icon will appear on the desktops of PCs sold to the small business sector. What is more, PC manufacturers such as IBM and Dell are paying NetObjects for the privilege of having it there.”
